Melting: fisical change.
Same substance, different state of aggregation (liquid, solid, steam)

Burning: chemical change.
Same mass, different substance. Reagents are transformed into products (sugar in carbon and carbon dioxide)

Good luck!

The Law of Conservation of Mass tells us that matter is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. ... A burning candle is an example of matter undergoing a chemical reaction and being changed into new substances. Hope this helps ;)
