rotting wood is a decomposition reaction. The chemicals in the wood ( mainly the hydrocarbon cellulose a polysaccharid ) break down into simpler molecules. Bacteria, and other decomposers "eat" the wood breaking the complex molecules into energy and simpler molecules. such as Carbon Dioxide, and water.

Answer:

Chemical change

Explanation:

Rotting, burning, cooking, and rusting are all further types of chemical changes because they produce substances that are entirely new chemical compounds. For example, burned wood becomes ash, carbon dioxide, and water.
