It doesn't get any oxygen and therefore the flame goes out
The time it takes for a candle to go out in a bell jar depends on the size of the jar, the amount of oxygen present, and the size of the candle. Generally, a candle will burn out more quickly in a bell jar due to limited oxygen supply, which is necessary for combustion to occur.
In Priestley's bell jar experiment, a lit candle is placed inside a bell jar, which is then sealed. As the candle burns, it consumes oxygen and produces carbon dioxide, leading to a decrease in oxygen levels within the jar. Eventually, the flame extinguishes due to insufficient oxygen for combustion. This experiment demonstrated the importance of oxygen for burning and laid the groundwork for understanding gases in respiration.
No, the candle will not burn because the flame will consume the oxygen inside the bell jar, creating a vacuum and extinguishing the flame. Oxygen is necessary for combustion to occur, and without it, the candle cannot burn.
A candle goes out when a jar is put over it because the jar restricts the flow of oxygen to the flame. A flame needs oxygen to burn, and when the oxygen supply is limited inside the jar, the flame will eventually suffocate and extinguish.
No, a candle in a jar will not last forever. The candle will eventually burn out as it consumes the wax and wick. The duration of the candle depends on factors such as the size of the candle, the quality of the wax, and the environmental conditions.

As the candle burns, it consumes oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. If the bell jar is sealed, the oxygen inside gets used up and the candle flame will eventually extinguish once oxygen levels drop too low to sustain combustion. The remaining air will become enriched with carbon dioxide from the burning candle.
It is not a truly anaerobic system because there is still some oxygen in the candle jar.
the candle will go out because oxygen helps in burning but a burning substance produces carbon dioxide but when we put a glass upon can carbon will heavier than oxygen and when oxygen will less candle will go out

Joesph Priestley
The temperature of a candle jar inhibits the growth of psychrotrophs, and the average temperature inside the candle jar is 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
As they burn, the candles are using up oxygen under the bell jar. They produce carbon dioxide as a result. Carbon dioxide is havier than air and so collects at the bottom of the bell jar. The lower candle goes out when the level of carbon dioxide gets high enough to "drown" that candles flame - that is, block it from any oxygen. However, it is possible that, before that happens, so much of the oxygen in the bell jar is used up that the remainder is not enough to sustain a flame.
I assume you are thinking about a situation where the jar is airtight.In this case, a larger jar will have more air in it, and therefore more oxygen; the candle will be able to burn longer in a larger jar. I would expect the time it burns to be roughly proportional to the volume of the jar.
The Bell Jar was created in 1963.
