Yes, burning is combustion, which produces H20(water) and CO2(carbon dioxide. Keep in mind a solid will not form from this reaction. This reaction is also identified as a chemical reaction, so yes it will produce a new substance. Hope this helps. Follow and message me on here for more help. Good luck.
