In agreement with RD the wood doesn't change to gas and disappear. It goes through a process called oxidation where the wood and oxygen combine and make a new product. This is not a change of state and it really doesn't disappear when the wind blows it away. It just thins out, and eventually settles to the ground.
... the black smoke disappears ...

A fire is just a fast form of oxidation. Most of the time the byproduct is heavier than air, so eventually it settles to the ground and you don't see black clouds it doesn't mean that it's converting to a 5th state of matter. It's just a fire.The last State of matter is the light not the fire.

The last State of matter is the light not the fire
Quote from: VictorEliasEspinozaGuedez on 17/03/2014 01:50:46The last State of matter is the light not the fireLight is electromagnetic radiation, not a state of matter.
The color of the light is electromagnetic radiation?
Quote from: VictorEliasEspinozaGuedez on 17/03/2014 13:49:12The color of the light is electromagnetic radiation?The light is electromagnetic radiation.Electromagnetic radiation can be of different wavelengths.The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation determines its colour , ( if in the visible spectrum). [ This is taught in secondary-school science.If what you've written about yourself is true I'm surprised you haven't encountered this information decades ago. IMO it's not in the interest of "VictorEliasEspinozaGuedez" for you to repeatedly post these absurd theories on websites ].
Electromagnetic radiation is the result of the fire.
Quote from: VictorEliasEspinozaGuedez on 17/03/2014 15:58:01Electromagnetic radiation is the result of the fire.Yes.In the fire combustion changes chemical-energy to heat-energy.

So if there is a change of State of matter.In combustion of solid or liquid material then yes, there is a change of state, as the products of combustion include gases , [ but a new 5th state of matter is not required to describe combustion ].
The Light is matter.
Quote from: VictorEliasEspinozaGuedez on 18/03/2014 03:46:29The Light is matter.Light has no mass , it can't be matter if it has no mass.Light is electromagnetic energy.
Color is not mass, colors is frequency. Different materials give off different colors based on their spectrum. This is not a change of matter. This is not, a change of state.
