The head of the match stick contains potassium chlorate, sulphur and glass powder.
The Striking area on the match box is coated with red phosphorus.
Explanation:
When the head of the Match stick is striked against the striking area, due to friction the red phosphorus starts igniting in the air getting converted to white phosphorus.
This reaction causes decomposition of potassium chlorate present in the head of the match stick to get converted into potassium chloride and oxygen. The oxygen itself proceeds the burning process that causes the sulphur to catch fire and consequently ignites the wood of the match stick till it burns completely.
