It is exothermic. When you put your hand close to the burning candle, does the air feel cooler or warmer? If it feels cooler, then it is drawing in heat and is endothermic (endo = in). If it feels warmer, then it is giving off heat and is exothermic (exo = out). (If the system is gaining energy (heat) than it is endothermic, releasing energy is exothermic.)
Burning a candle is a chemical change, as is burning anything.
exothermic- because exothermic gives off heat and endothermic is cold
Candle wax is the fuel a candle uses to keep burning. So, I guess the effect of the wax is the candle keeps burning.
I think a burning and unattending candle is not safe because little kids can burn on the candle.
Exothermic process
Because exothermic change releases energy.

The reaction releases heat and light to its surroundings, so it is exothermic.
the products of a burning candle are water vapor and carbon dioxide
Burning a candle is a chemical change, as is burning anything.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction where heat or light energy is released. An example of this type of reaction is burning a candle.

what name is given to a process such as burning a candle?
A burning candle produces thermal energy and light.
a burning candle is a light source due to the fire.
