What kind of candle burns the fastest?

the one with the thickest wick.The flame from the candle melts the fuel (beeswax, tallow, cocoa butter, paraffin, or other hard waxy fat substance) which is then drawn up the candle wick and fed to the flame. The thicker the wick, the more fuel can be fed to the flame, making the flame bigger and hotter and using up the candle faster.


What color candles burn faster?

It always depends on the size and shape of the candle. 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. Color is not the predominant factor.Other observations* It's not the color of the candle, but the wick. If the wick is cheap the candle won't burn correctly or will burn out shortly after you light it. If the wick is of good quality, it will burn down the center of the candle without once going out.* Candles that are plain (white) may burn faster because they don't contain as many chemicals in the wax.* There is a good reason why one candle burns faster than another... because it takes less time to vaporize the wax.* The color would only make a difference in that respect if a significant amount of the heat (imparted on the wax) came from the flame's infrared radiation. Because the wax is used up by being heated by the flame (and eventually being melted, vaporized, and then combusted), the composition of the wax and wick will have more consequence than how much light energy the wax absorbs or reflects.


What burns faster a short fat candle or thin long candle and why?

A long candle because the flame won't melt on the edge so it wont burn that, and the wax in the middle gets too deep and the fire goes out due to lack of oxygen. A long and thin one uses all the wax and since it so thin it burns faster.

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)!!
