Explanation:
Red phosphorus is present on the striking surface of the matchbox. Potassium chlorate is present on the head of the matchstick. When you rub the head of the matchstick on the striking surface of the matchbox, some heat is generated due to the friction. This heat breaks a small part of the red phosphorus chain.
