If the glass jar is sealed, there is a limited amount of oxygen within it. Fire uses oxygen to stay alive. Once it uses up the limited amount of oxygen in the glass jar, it can no longer sustain flame. However, in the open, there is a theoretically unlimited amount of oxygen.
What else can I help you with?
When a candle burns wax undergoes a combustion reaction would a candle burn longer in the open or when covered with an inverted glass jar?
The candle burning in the open will burn longer, because it has easy access to oxygen to sustain the reaction. The flame of the candle burning under the jar will go out quickly, since it will use up its available oxygen faster than the oxygen can be replenished. Even if the jar is open at the bottom, the heat, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide produced by the flame will prevent sufficient oxygen from getting to the flame to feed it.
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 gas would make a candle burn for longer?
Usually oxygen, primarily because it is how fire is made. But for longer, there isn't a possible way to make it burn 'longer' with gas, but more rather use wax and string that are more durable to fire. Or alternatively you can put a plant near the fire (out of burning range) to give the fire as much oxygen as possible. hope it helps
How do you make sulphur candle?
To make a sulfur candle, you would typically mix powdered sulfur with a binding agent such as clay or other combustible material. The mixture is then molded into candle shapes and allowed to dry. When lit, the candle releases sulfur fumes used for fumigation purposes.
Does a candle with flame have cells?
No, a candle with a flame does not have cells. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of living organisms, and a candle is not considered a living organism. The flame on a candle is a result of the combustion of wax and a wick.
If a candle was bigger than a plant would the candle stay lit longer if they were both sealed in a glass jar?
Yes, a larger candle would likely stay lit longer than a plant if both were sealed in a glass jar because candles are designed to burn for extended periods of time, while plants require specific environmental conditions to survive. The larger candle would have more fuel to sustain the flame compared to a plant.
How would you prove a plant produces oxygen?
place 2-3 plants with dense leaves in a closed glass chamber with a lighted candle. the candle will light longer than wothout plants

Why do you think that candle with plant would burn for a longer time?
Candle burns oxygen. Plant produces oxygen from Carbon Dioxide. plant produces oxygen, which is burned by candle. Candle lasts longer because more oxygen is present
Which is to burn longer a tallow candle or a wax candle?
If you freeze the candle, before using it, it will burn for a longer period of time. ANSWER Beeswax burns very quickly.
What would stay colder longer aluminum cup or glass cup?
glass
What would you call a glass Christmas ornament that is lit from the inside with a candle?
I am not 100% sure but I would call it a hanging lamp ornament
How would a larger diameter candle would produce a larger flame?
The size of the wick dertermines how large the flame is.
Why would someone want to use an electric candle instead of regular candles?
Someone might want to use an electric candle instead of a regular candle to reduce the risk of fire hazards. Also an electric candle will last far longer and not have to be replaced like regular candles.
Can you boil water with candle?
Yes, you can boil water with a candle by placing a heatproof container of water over the candle's flame. It may take more time compared to using a stove, but it can be done in an emergency or when camping.
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.
Will a candle burn longer in inhaled air or exhaled air?
Air contains about 21% oxygen, so the candle in air might only burn 21% as long as a candle in oxygen. Of course, that does not include other variables, like the candle burning in oxygen will burn hotter, melting the candle wax sooner.
