Example: white candle burns. white reflects light so heat is deflected also black candle burns. black absorbs light and heat therefore would burn faster than a white candle.

Why does a white candle burn faster than a colored candle?
Have you actually tested this to make certain that it's true? There's no particular reason a white candle should burn at a significantly different rate than a colored candle made from the same material using the same process. (The dye used is not present in large enough amounts to make much difference.) This seems to be a common belief, but the people who work in candle factories (whom one presumes would know) generally say it's not true.

What is the hypothesis of do white candles and colored candles burn at the same rate?
White or colored candles may burn at the same rate, or at different rates. The rate at which a candle burns is dependent on the size and composition of the wick, and the thickness, composition, and melting / vaporization rate of the candle wax.
Why does a blue candle burn faster than a white?
there is no real reason to believe that a blue candle would burn any faster than a white candle!! the reason a candle burns at all is due to the wick and type of wax the candles are made from for example: a beeswax candle is of thicker material than candles made from animal fat or petroleum!! one exception might be if the colorant of the blue candle was made of a more flammable compund such as phosphorus (the basis for napalm bombs that burns intensely and quickly - don't get it on your skin)!!
How is the time it takes for colored water to dye a flower changed based on the type of flower such as between a white rose and a white carnation?
Some flowers use more water, faster. The faster it would normally use water, the faster it would absorb a liquid dye.
You burnt a yellow candle a blue candle a green candle a black candle a white candle and a red candle and the blue burnt the fastest why is that?
Working at a 100 year old Candle Company, ColonialCandle.com, I asked the candle making team of experts. When we have done this experiment using taper candles, the white candle should burn the fastest as there are no colorants to impede the capillary action of the wax through the wick. That is making sure that all things are equal in the candle make up such as wick, and wax. Unless of course , the white candle has an optical bleach in it to have the illusion of being more white. The optical bleach is a pigment and would cause the rate of consumption to be less. Only thing to add is a darker candle can sometimes burn faster because a dark color holds more heat and can cause the candle to burn slightly faster. But your point of all things being equal is the most important factor.
