it's both solid and liquid. When it's cooled it's a solid, then when it is heated it's a liquid.
Melting candle wax is a chemical change. Why? Because when you cook or burn candle wax it melts so it is a chemical change.
It is a physical change, from a solid to a liquid. The chemical composition of the wax remains unchanged.
Melting is always physical, like boiling, freezing, condensing etc.
Candle wax are generally organic compounds. melting of candle wax is a physical property
Melting candle wax is a chemical change. Why? Because when you cook or burn candle wax it melts so it is a chemical change.
When candle wax melts, it is only changing its physical state from a solid to a liquid. Its chemical makeup doesn't change. When the wax cools, it returns to its solid state. Since only its physical state is changed, melting candle wax is a physical change.
Burning a candle is the process in which the wick is burnt. The wax is there to make the wick burn slower in order to let the candle burn for longer. Melting wax is part of the process but not burning the candle itself.
Wax evaporates as well as melting. Mass is therefore lost, as the wax turns into various gaseous molecules which escape from the solid body.
it will go into space
Melted/Melting.
A candle burns by melting the wax. If the wax of one candle starts out colder than the wax of another, then the wax of the colder candle takes longer to get to it's melting point than the other.
