Wood is a hydrocarbon. When wood burns, the hydrogen and carbon in the wood combine with oxygen to produce water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Depending on the other elements in the wood, other elements can be created. For example if there is sulfur in the wood, you could have sulfur dioxide (SO2).
