Light the candle and put a glass jar over it. Watch the flame of the candle closely. When the flame goes out, this means that the flame must have oxygen to burn the candle. This is how candles use oxygen.

Why candle burns longer in oxygen?

Candles burn longer in oxygen because oxygen efficiently supports the combustion process. The heat produced by the flame breaks down the candle wax, releasing fuel molecules which combine with oxygen to continue burning. In contrast, if the candle is in a limited oxygen environment, incomplete combustion occurs and the candle burns at a faster rate.
