The principal component of a candle is stearin, or paraffin, or beeswax, etc. As additives are used colouring agents and aromas.
Candles may be made from any of a variety of different waxes. To take one of these as an example, paraffin wax is itself a mixture of hydrocarbons with various melting points and other properties. Please see the links.
The candle burn is an oxydation reaction; organic compounds are burned with oxygen.
A candle is a mixture of different compounds. The wax in a candle is typically made of hydrocarbons, such as paraffin or beeswax. When the candle is burned, the compounds in the wax undergo a chemical reaction to produce heat, light, and products like carbon dioxide and water vapor.
When a candle burns, the primary compounds formed are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O). Incomplete combustion can also produce carbon monoxide (CO) and soot (carbon particles). In addition, small amounts of other compounds like formaldehyde, acetic acid, and traces of other volatile organic compounds may also be produced.
Information regarding the shades of a burning candle can be found on the Yankee Candle website as well as the Aloha Bay website. Safety tips can be found as well.
Candle wax is a homogeneous mixture because it has a uniform composition throughout, consisting of a combination of different hydrocarbons and other organic compounds.
Carbon is combined with oxygen forming carbon dioxide.

There are no compounds found in calcium. Calcium is an element.
Neon isn't found in compounds.
Candle wax is a physical property since it is a characteristic of the substance itself. Physical properties describe the appearance, composition, and behavior of a material without changing its chemical composition.
