It is because the wax changes from solid to liquid and the wax can't appear in a gaseous state
Is candle wax a physical property?
Candle wax are generally organic compounds. melting of candle wax is a physical property
Which elements are used to make candles?
Candles are made from wax. Wax is an organic compound made up from carbon and hydrogen.
Can you compost wax?
No. Not recommended. Wax decomposition is very slow and would slow down the decomposing in the compost pile. However, you can bury wax deeper in the gardens since it is organic and will eventually contribute to subsoil blending.
Is chlorinated paraffin wax organic in nature?
Yes, because it contains carbon and hydrogen, it is by definition organic. It is not a natural product, however, so would not be considered "organic" in the food sense of the word.
Are there additives in fresh fruit?
If it's not organic it may have pesticides, fungicides, artificial coloring, wax.
Why the melting point of candle wax cannot be too high?
Candles contain organic compounds with low melting points.
Can you eat the skin of a yam?
If you buy organic yams, you can eat the entire yam including the skin. If you buy traditionally prepared yams you should peel them because they are often treated with dye or wax. * i beg to differ. first conventially grown yams are most certenlly not treated with dyes or wax, secondly the use of many dyes and certainly wax is permitted in organic farming as it is a "natural" product (if you think you can sense some sarcasm you're not wrong) so if that whats worrying you eating organic is no solution.

Can wax paper ever decompose or be recycled?
As far as I know from college, wax is a lipid, made from carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Since it has carbon in it, that means that it is an organic substance that is biodegradable. And the paper component of wax paper is obviously recyclable. So the short answer to your question is yes! However, I don't recommend putting it in the "paper" recycling bin. The wax could mess up the paper recycling machines.
What is skateboard wax made of?
Ski wax starts off with either a hydrocarbon or fluorocarbon wax. Fluro adds water-repelling power, but is worse for the environment. Manufactures can then add lots of additives to improve speed, including additional fluorinated ingredients, graphite, molybdenum, or other powders. All of those powders decrease friction, either due to water or static electricity.
What do molecular bonds dissolve in?
Molecular bonds don't "dissolve". But, an organic solvent can provide affinity to the molecules you wish to break apart from EACH OTHER...as molecules. Solvents don't break covalent bonds like that. For example, you can dissolve wax in oil, because the wax will DISPERSE within the oil..but the wax molecules will remain wax. If you break the covalent bonds...it would no longer remain wax. Catalysts can break bonds....or some type of replacement reaction of functional groups on a molecule. Okay?
