What gas is formed when a candle burns?
C02
A different chemical substance is formed when a piece of cloth is cut cup breaks candle burns or a piece of chalk breaks?
The candle burning is a chemical process.
Why are burning candle and rusting nails examples of chemical change?
Burning candles and the rusting of nails are examples of chemical changes owing to the fact that there are chemical reactions occurring and new chemical compounds are being formed as the reaction continues.When a candle burns, the wax and wick of the candle are undergoing combustion and (ideally) being chemically changed into carbon dioxide and water, which are two completely new chemical substances than were present in the candle. In the case of the nail, iron in the steel alloy from which the nail is made is combining with oxygen to form a chemical compound not present in the nail, namely iron oxide.
Which burns faster a white candle or a colored candle?
Usually a colored candle. I think yellow burns the fastest of all. It has to do with the chemicals associated with the pigment of the color.

Is a candle burns chemical reaction?
Yes, burning a candle is a chemical reaction. The easiest way to tell if something is a chemical reaction is if heat or light are given of, a new substance is formed, or a colour change happens. Chemical changes are irreversible.Yes, whenever a candle burns, it is a combustion reaction between the carbon compounds of the wick and wax of the candle and of oxygen in the air. These compounds burn to create carbon dioxide and water, and also a few smaller carbon compounds, which is evident as the smoke rising occasionally from the flame. The flame you see and the heat you feel rising off of the burning wick is the evidence of an exothermic chemical reaction.Yes, burning a candle is a chemical reaction. The easiest way to tell if something is a chemical reaction is if heat or light are given of, a new substance is formed, or a colour change happens. Chemical changes are irreversible.

What does a candle let out?

The shape of a candle affects how fast it burns because if you have a round candle it would be shorter than a cylinder. The smaller the shape the faster it burns.
