A sealed jar with a large candle inside a small jar would not last 5 minutes. A large jar with a small candle most likely would last 5 minutes
If the gases released by a burning candle could be contained and measured would you see that their mass is the same as the candle's was before it was lit and what law does this example describe?
This experiment is a verification of the law of the conservation of matter. And yes, the mass of all the combustion products would be equal to the mass of the candle and the oxygen it consumed while burning.

Why did the candle stop burning after some time?
You do not give us the conditions when the candle stops burning, but a guess would be that the candle is in a closed container. When the candle has used up the oxygen inside the closed container, it can no longer burn, and goes out.
Can you boil water with candle?
Certainly. However, the amount would be very small. A tablespoon of water will boil fairly quickly. A big pan would take much longer than the candle would last.
How would a larger diameter candle would produce a larger flame?

Why would someone want to use an electric candle instead of regular candles?

How much does a plant grow in a year?
it depends on the plant you grow a tree would take much longer but a plant would not take as much time
What gas would make a candle burn for longer?
Usually oxygen, primarily because it is how fire is made. But for longer, there isn't a possible way to make it burn 'longer' with gas, but more rather use wax and string that are more durable to fire. Or alternatively you can put a plant near the fire (out of burning range) to give the fire as much oxygen as possible. hope it helps
What would happen to a species of plants if its pollinator no longer existed?
The plant would go extinct.
Will a candle burn longer in inhaled air or exhaled air?
Air contains about 21% oxygen, so the candle in air might only burn 21% as long as a candle in oxygen. Of course, that does not include other variables, like the candle burning in oxygen will burn hotter, melting the candle wax sooner.
