Physical change means change physically while chemical change means change chemically or change in chemical properties.Like if you would drop a chip of zinc in sulphuric acid it will its color will be changed which is no doubt a physical change.But,also its properties are changed as it will be transformed into zinc sulphate from simple zinc,thus it also undergoes a chemical change. Now,with your question,the candle breaks but the candle remains the candle,so,its not a chemical change but a physical change only.Hope it helps!

Is lighting a chemical change?
Yes. While act of melting wax is a physical change, because you can remould it, the wax is actually what is primarily burned as fuel. You cannot unburn the wick nor the consumed wax. Remember, if it can be redone, it is probably physical and vice versa.The wick of a candle is used to light it and is used as a medium for burning the wax. As the wax is heated, it is soaked into the burning wick. As the fire burns the wax on the wick, more melted wax is absorbed into by the wick. As the wax burns down, so does the wick.
