When molten wax is freezing and turning back into a solid what happens to the temperature?
It goes down :P
What is the physical state of paraffin wax at room temperature?
Paraffin wax is typically solid at room temperature.
What is molten sulfur?
Molten sulfur is sulfur that has been heated to its melting point, which is around 115°C. At this temperature, sulfur changes from a solid state to a liquid state. Molten sulfur is commonly used in industrial processes such as sulfuric acid production and as a component in certain chemicals.
Is candle wax solid liquid or gas at room temperature?
Solid.
Is candle wax a solid or a liquid?
Candle wax is a solid at room temperature. When heated, it melts into a liquid form.
What is the change of state in a lit candle?
The change of state in a lit candle is from solid (wax) to liquid (molten wax) to gas (vaporized wax) as the heat from the flame melts the wax and turns it into vapor that burns, releasing heat and light.
Wax like all matter comes in many phases. What are the three possible phases?

Why does wax solidify so fast?
Wax solidifies quickly because it undergoes a phase change from a liquid to a solid at a relatively low temperature, known as its melting point. As the wax cools down, its molecules lose energy, causing them to come closer together and form a solid structure. The composition and molecular arrangement of wax contribute to its fast solidification.
Why does the temperature affect the wax and how melts?
Temperature affects wax because it determines the energy of the molecules within the wax. As the temperature increases, the molecules gain kinetic energy, causing them to vibrate more and eventually break the bonds that hold them together in a solid state. This process leads to melting, where the wax transitions from a solid to a liquid form. Conversely, lower temperatures reduce molecular movement, causing the wax to solidify again.
List of solids which changes its state when heated?
Ice (solid water) changes to liquid water when heated. Wax solid changes to liquid wax when heated. Metal becomes molten when heated to its melting point. Paraffin wax solid changes to liquid paraffin wax when heated.
Is Liquid wax turned solid a chemical change?
Yes becasue when the atoms inside the wax start to change, they all form and become a solid. this is what is now called replacement.
When hot waxing downhill skis can you apply a warmer temperature wax over a colder temperature wax?
Yes. You can also use a warm wax to remove other waxes or even dirt. Simply wax a warm wax on your skis and scrap the wax off while it is still molten. This is called hot scraping. So you can either hot scrap the colder wax out and then apply the warm wax, let it cool and scrap/brush, or you can just wax the warmer wax in.
