The answer is B. Sugar is made of carbon, hydrogen,and oxygen atoms. When heated, these elements react to the fire to turn into a liquid. The heat causes the sugar's atoms to combine with the oxygen in the air, forming new groups of atoms. Energy is released in the form of smoke. Let me know if it's right :)
