What is the hypothesis of do white candles and colored candles burn at the same rate?
White or colored candles may burn at the same rate, or at different rates. The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax.
Do all candles burn at the same rate?
Candles do not burn at a constant rate at all. There are hundreds of different kinds of candles. Some burn quickly and some burn slowly so there is no way of really finding a constant rate.
Do white candles burn faster than colored ones?
The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax. The composition of the candle is far more important to the burn rate than the color.
What determines the burn rate of different type of candles?
Mainly the diameter. The wider candles have the slowest burn rate (measured in inches per hour). But if you mean measured in weight loss of the candle, then I don't know.
What color candles burn faster?
It always depends on the size and shape of the candle. The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax. Color is not the predominant factor.Other observations* It's not the color of the candle, but the wick. If the wick is cheap the candle won't burn correctly or will burn out shortly after you light it. If the wick is of good quality, it will burn down the center of the candle without once going out.* Candles that are plain (white) may burn faster because they don't contain as many chemicals in the wax.* There is a good reason why one candle burns faster than another... because it takes less time to vaporize the wax.* The color would only make a difference in that respect if a significant amount of the heat (imparted on the wax) came from the flame's infrared radiation. Because the wax is used up by being heated by the flame (and eventually being melted, vaporized, and then combusted), the composition of the wax and wick will have more consequence than how much light energy the wax absorbs or reflects.
DO white candles burn at a differnt rate than colored candles?
yes white candles burn at diffent rate because it dosent contan many chemicals in the wax.
What is a hypothesis for white candles burn at a different rate than colored candles?
Because they are colored and funky stuff
Does white candles burn at a different rate than colored candles?
yes, i believe that white candles burn at a different rate because white candles have less chemicals and are plain so they have a possibility of burning at a different rate and colored candles contain more chemicals and are thicker and they put smelly scent in them so i do believe that colored and white candles burn at a different rate in my perspective that is what i most believe so there you got my opinion :D this be Natalie trujillo Monique
What do you need to perform experiment for burning white and colored candles to see if they burn at same rate?
You need white and colored candles, a timer, and a lighter.
What causes colored candles to burn faster than white candles?
White or colored candles may burn at the same rate or at different rates. The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax.
What is a good elementary science project?
Do white candles burn at a different rate than colored and/or decorated candles?
Why do colored candles and white candles not burn at the same rate?
perhaps the dye slows the wax from melting as fast
What makes a white candles burn at a different rate than colored candles?
Color makes no difference. The fact that your white candles burn differently is that they either are a different wax or contain different additives.
What is the hypothesis of do white candles and colored candles burn at the same rate?
White or colored candles may burn at the same rate, or at different rates. The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax.
Do white candles burn at the same rate as coloured candles?
yes!
What is the conclusion for do white candles burn at a different rate then colored candles?
White canldes will probably burn at a different rate than colored candles for the simple reason that in order to get different colors, candles will have different compositions - you have to put different dyes (or other color source) into candles to make some of them green, some of them blue, some of them orange, etc. etc. etc. With that said, most of the time if all you have done is add a little bit of color to the wax, it won't affect the burn rate very much. Also keep in mind that even if you do change the burn rate, you would have to know what you used to make the color in order to determine if the burn rate increased or decreased. Burn rate depends on composition. Color depends on composition. Burn rate is only indirectly related to color.
Do colored candles burn at the same rate as white candles?
The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax. Color is not the dominant factor. Wind and temperature will also affect the rate of burning.
