What is the difference in freezing point and melting point of wax?
Wiki User
∙ 10y ago
The melting points of
BEE'S wax is 45C, 113F
Carnauba (a vegetable wax) 78-85C, 172.4-185F.
Paraffin (a mineral wax) 47-65C, 116.6-149F.
what about molten candle wax?
But the freezing point of BEE's wax is usually around 33C.

Sorry, but I like writing in this awesome heading type. Added:but I don't, so: ...............(I corrected 1st line)

WAT DA FK IS DIS?

∙ 14y agoDepends on the origin of the wax. The melting points of BEE'S wax is 45C. However, other waxes exist such as carnauba (a vegetable wax, 78-85C) and paraffin (a mineral wax, 47-65C).

What is the Paraffin Wax freezing Point?
The freezing point is the same as the melting point; it is the point at which the paraffin transitions from solid to liquid. 37 °C (99 °F)
Lower the melting point of wax?
I use Petroleum Jelly, (Vaseline) in my wax and it lowers the melting point a bit.
Why melting of wax is difference than burning of wax?
Melting doesn't change the composition of a compound (substance).Burning is a chemical reaction, an oxidation - new compounds are formed.
When the wax of a melting candle changes from solid to liquid this is a change.?
Melting is always physical, like boiling, freezing, condensing etc.
Why does the wax not freeze at the top of candle?
The temperature is higher than the melting point of the wax.

Physical change 2examples?
freezing of water, boiling of water and melting of wax

What is the melting point of solid wax C20H42?
The melting point of icosane (C20H42) is 36-38 0C.
When the wax of a melting candle changes from solid to liquid this is a change.?
Melting is always physical, like boiling, freezing, condensing etc.
What is the temperature called at which a solid changes to a liquid?
This is called the melting point (symbol Tm).The melting point is different for different elements, compounds, and materials. Some solids, wax for example, has a relatively low melting point, while the melting point of some alloys, such as steel, is very high. The melting point of ice is the freezing point of water, subject to the enthalpy of fusion (the heat of fusion).
Why does the wax not freeze at the top of candle?
The temperature is higher than the melting point of the wax.
What is wax's melting point?
bee's wax: about 62-64 C The range of the melting point is between 30 0C and 70 0C, depending on the material used. At a higher temperature the wax is thermally decomposed or ignited.
What would happen if wax with low melting point was used in a lava lamp?
It would take quicker to heat up and work than if you used a wax with a high melting point.
Does wax have a high melting point?
It has a melting point between 31 degrees Celsius and 80 degrees Celsius, depending on the materials used.
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.
