What are the five properties of a candle?
The candle is a solid substance. It has a wick that acts as a fuel for burning. It emits light when lit. It releases heat as it burns. It can be made from various materials such as paraffin wax, beeswax, or soy wax.
What happens to the fuel for the burning candle?
The fuel for a burning candle is wax, which is a hydrocarbon. When the candle burns, the wax is converted into carbon dioxide and water vapor through a combustion reaction. This process releases energy in the form of heat and light.
What is the effect of candle wax?
Candle wax can provide fuel for the flame, allowing the candle to burn. It also helps to shape and hold the wick in place. Additionally, certain types of candle waxes can impact factors such as burn time, scent throw, and appearance of the candle.
Why the candles stays alight even when you take the match away?
The primary fuel source of a burning candle is the wax it is made of. Once the wick of the candle is lit, the flame is sufficiently hot to allow continuing melting, vaporization, and burning of that wax - thus the match is no longer required to keep it lit.
Why did the candle stop burning after some time?
You do not give us the conditions when the candle stops burning, but a guess would be that the candle is in a closed container. When the candle has used up the oxygen inside the closed container, it can no longer burn, and goes out.
What is on its own substance and dies when it devours itself?

How does a wick work to facilitate the burning of a candle?
A wick works by absorbing the melted wax in a candle and drawing it up to the flame, where it vaporizes and burns, providing fuel for the flame to continue burning.

Why does a candle not burn on the surface of the moon?
for combustion to take place there has to be heat, oxygen and a fuel. On the moon there is a fuel (wick of the candle) and heat(your fire source) but no oxygen as there is no atmosphere which makes combustion (burning) impossible.
Why does the burning candle go out when we blow on it?
Blowing on the candle increases the rate of oxygen supply, causing the flame to burn more rapidly and use up the available fuel (wax) quicker. Eventually, the flame runs out of fuel and is extinguished.
What is chemcial reactions you encounter with everday?
Examples are:- cooking in a microwave oven- washing with soaps and detergents- digestion in stomach- burning the fuel in a vehicle- bleaching- burning a candle
Why is a burning candle extinguished by a fire extinguisher?
Like any other fire, a burning candle requires fuel, heat, oxygen and a chemical reaction. If you use a fire extinguisher, it typically removes the heat or oxygen from the process, thus stopping the fire.
Why did the candle stop burning after some time?
You do not give us the conditions when the candle stops burning, but a guess would be that the candle is in a closed container. When the candle has used up the oxygen inside the closed container, it can no longer burn, and goes out.
What substance is burning the fuel?
Petroleum , or coal, or gas. Your question is unclear, can you ask it differently?
