Is melting wax 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.
What is the chemical change for melting of wax?
Melting is a physical process.
Is candle wax melting 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.
Is candle wax melting chemical or physical change?
It is a physical change, from a solid to a liquid. The chemical composition of the wax remains unchanged.
Why is melting the property of the wax but flammability is a chemical property?
The answer is simple: flammability involve a chemical change.
Is wax melting a chemical or physical or chemical property?
Physical change. The wax was solid and now it is a liquid. All phase changes are physical changes.
Why burning of candle is a physical and chemical change?
CHEMICAL
What type of reaction occurs when a candle is burned?
There are 2; the melting of the candles wax is physical but the wick burning is chemical.
Is melting of wax is chemical change or physical?
Yes it is!:Pwhen a candle is lighted the solid wax changes into liquid wax,then it turns into vapour to produce flame.new substances like Co2 and H2O are formed alongwith the evoulation of light and heat.
What is melting physical proreties of wax but frammabillty is a change propeties?
Melting is a physical property because it only changes the physical state of the substance, such as wax, but does not change its physical or chemical properties. This is because melting is not a chemical reaction. Flammability, however, is a chemical property, and when a substance burns, that is a chemical reaction, and the physical and chemical properties of the products will be different than the reactants (starting substances).

Explain why burining a candle is a chemical cange wile melting wax is a physical change?
Can you recover the original material(s) after the change without using chemical means? Burning - no. What was once the wax (and wick) now have different chemical compositions that cannot be recovered other than by chemical means. Thus, it's a chemical change. Melting - yes. The wax can be recovered without using chemical means. The melted wax is allowed to cool down, and this is a physical change, so the recovery is by physical means. Thus, it's a physical change. Tip: how do you reverse a change? That's the type of change it is.
