Does the color of a candle affect the burning rate?

the color has nothing to do with the candle at diffrent burning rate it is the wick. We found that color does make a difference. We bought the exact same candles except each candle was a different color. Found out that the white candle burned down the fastest, the red was next, and so on. So candle wax color does make a difference in the burning rate of a candle. ( My daughter had a science experiment)


Why is burning a candle a closed system?

Burning a candle is considered a closed system because the wax and wick within the candle system are confined, and the energy and matter within the system (such as heat, light, and gases emitted) do not exchange with the surroundings. The energy released from burning the candle is contained within the system, making it a closed system.
