What is the density of candle wax?
The density of parafin wax is about 0.93 g/ml - less dense than water. Liquid wax is less dense than that, but I am now sure of the value.
Density of candle wax?
Candle wax or paraffin has a density of about 0.9 g/ml , this is lighter than water.
Would you measure car wax in liters or milliliters?
milliliters, because a container of car wax is smaller than a sports water bottle which is about a liter
Why is the smaller diameter candle burns faster than bigger diameter candle?
candles burn as much wax as the wick can bring to the flame. It is typically a constant amount of wax being burned. Smaller diameter candles have less wax and therefor run out of wax to burn sooner.
Is liquid wax or solid wax more dense?
As in most substances, solid wax is more dense than liquid wax. Density, by definition, is mass divided by volume. If the volume is smaller, meaning less space occupied, than the density increases. In a solid, the temperature lowers, the molecules have less energy and are less active. Therefore, they take up less space, equalling a smaller volume. Small volume, more density.
Is methane in wax?
no
How do you know what is made after burning methane and wax?
you don't
Gasoline many plastics candle wax and methane are all examples of?
Hydrocarbons
Can you use parafin wax between the pieces of slate to assemble a pool table?
You can, but bees wax, the proper method, is harder than paraffin. The paraffin seal will not stand up as long as beeswax.
Why is it bad to freeze wax?
freezing wax is not bad--it does make candle wax more brittle to handle but actually prolongs the wax use when it burns--as for paste type waxes (i.e.-shoe wax, car wax)--this shouldn't harm the product either--just makes it harder to use until it resumes room temperature
Can you use skateboard wax for a skimboard ramp wax?
I'm sure there are different kinds of wax that will work better than skate wax, but any wax is going to work better than none. So I say Yes, do it!
What is the difference between skate wax and regular candles?
skate wax is less mesy than candle wax
Is hot wax more gentle to use on the body than cold wax?
Hot wax is a more gentle method than cold strip wax and is ideal for sensitive areas. The warmth of the wax opens the pores and supposedly results in less pain.
Do soybean candles burn faster than beeswax candles?
Soy wax does melt quicker than beeswax, but are a better burning candle in glass containers. Beeswax takes longer to heat than soy wax. Since the soy wax is a softer wax it takes longer for Soy Wax to harden.
What is the difference between cool surfboard wax and warm surfboard wax?
To be stupid, one is cold and the other is warm, but to be smart the cold wax may be stiffer and harder to spread, while the warm wax will be easier to spread but more slippery. If you use wax a lot try just use sing it at room temperature. It should work! ;)
Why do candles stored at room temp burn fastar than frozen candles?
A candle burns by melting the wax. If the wax of one candle starts out colder than the wax of another, then the wax of the colder candle takes longer to get to it's melting point than the other.
What is the density of candle wax?
The density of parafin wax is about 0.93 g/ml - less dense than water. Liquid wax is less dense than that, but I am now sure of the value.
