A wick is a bundle of fibres within a candle, an oil lamp, or a kerosene heater.
A candle wick that has been burnt is called a "spent wick."
The wick acts as a fuel delivery system for the flame. When the wick is lit, the heat from the flame melts the wax around it, which is then drawn up the wick via capillary action to be burned.
The wick turns black when a candle burns due to incomplete combustion. The carbon in the wick does not fully burn in the flame's heat, leaving behind soot that accumulates and darkens the wick. This process is more pronounced in candles with cotton wicks.
the wick Burns but it produces heat that melts the wax
The wick of a candle is flammable because it is made of a material, such as cotton or hemp, that is able to combust when heated. When the wick is lit, the heat causes the wax around it to melt and be drawn up the wick, where it vaporizes and burns to produce a flame.
