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
Is chloride flammable?
Chloride itself is not a substance. It is the ion formed by the element chlorine. Chlorine can react with oxygen but in most of its reactions it does not burn but rather causes other substances to "burn" much in the manner that oxygen does.
What is oxygen rich?
"Oxygen rich" means lots of oxygen. If the air in a room is "oxygen rich" things will burn better. "Oxygen poor" means there isn't much and "oxygen starved" means there is none or almost none.
How much air is required to burn 1 kg of lpg?
27.03 mm^3 of air
Why does a white candle burn faster than a colored candle?
Have you actually tested this to make certain that it's true? There's no particular reason a white candle should burn at a significantly different rate than a colored candle made from the same material using the same process. (The dye used is not present in large enough amounts to make much difference.) This seems to be a common belief, but the people who work in candle factories (whom one presumes would know) generally say it's not true.
Will a candle burn twice as longer in an inverted liter jar than in a half-liter jar?
Yes. There is twice as much oxygen in a liter jar.
What happends to a burning candle if there is no oxygen?
It will simply go out as fire needs to burn oxygen, too. You can see this. Empty and clean an aluminum soda can. Place a burning candle deep in a jar. Pour a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide in the soda can. Cover and shake upright. Leave the liquid in the can while you slowly pour the carbon dioxide gas into the jar and it puts the candle out by pushing all the oxygen up and out.
If you burn a candle will there be carbon dioxide?
The flame will go out, because carbon dioxide removes the oxygen from the area surrounding the flame. Fire requires oxygen to burn, much like humans need oxygen to breath, and similar to carbon dioxide does to humans, the flame will lose its oxygen and go out.
Why would a candle use too much air?
It burns the oxygen. r
How much does shipping cost at the Candle Wall store?
The Candle wall store is a company that provides customers with all their candle needs. The cost of shipping at the candle wall store varies with what is required.
Can you burn a candle inside a jar?
For a short time with the lid on or for much longer with the lid off.
Does temperature affect how fast a candle will burn?
Yes. My 7 year old did this as a science experiment. He used 3 pilliar candles, left one on the counter, put one in the fridge, and one in the freezer - all for 24 hrs. He then lit them and let them burn for 3 hours, checking every 30min. At the end of the 3 hours, the one left on the counter was burned down a lot, the one in the fridg, not as far and the one from the freezer was hardly melted at all.
In how many seconds will a candle melt?
Impossible to answer, too many variables: Size of the candle Size of the wick How much oxygen etc.. etc... etc..
How much ATP is produced if there is no oxygen?
None. Oxygen is required for the production of ATP

Why does fire not burn in water?
Fire feeds on oxygen, and water does not have much of it.
What happens when you put a lid over a lit candle?
Fire dies out because a constant supply oxygen is needed to keep a fire burning. When then oxygen is removed, the fire burns the remaining oxygen until it is all gone. Normally when fire has a good supply of oxygen it give of Carbon dioxide. However without enough oxygen it gives Carbon monoxide as the oxygen is used up. When there is virtually no oxygen left, the fire goes out.
