What is the functional group present in waxes?
im pretty sure its lipids Correction^^^^: I pretty sure lipids are molecules that consists as waxes as well as fatty acids, Ester is a functional group that contains waxes
What makes fats oils and waxes?
Fats and oils contain long chain esters of glycerol. Very large ones can be waxes, but many other compounds make waxes, including long chain alkanes.
Wax is chemically mixture of?
Exact chemical mixtures or ratios of chemicals depend on the type of wax, whether they be animal waxes, vegetable waxes, mineral waxes, petroleum waxes, or synthetic waxes. Natural waxes such as animal waxes tend to have a greater variation in wax composition while synthetic waxes generally have less. Chemically, a wax is a type of lipid that may contain a wide variety of long-chain alkanes, esters, polyesters and hydroxy esters of long-chain primary alcohols and fatty acids. They are usually distinguished from fats by the lack of triglyceride esters of glycerin (propan-1,2,3-triol) and three fatty acids. In addition to the esters that contribute to the high melting point and hardness of carnauba wax, the epicuticular waxes of plants are mixtures of substituted long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons, containing alkanes, fatty acids, primary and secondary alcohols, diols, ketones, aldehydes. Paraffin waxes are hydrocarbons, mixtures of alkanes usually in a homologous series of chain lengths.

Is wax man made or natural?
Several waxes are produced by animals and plants, as beeswax and other; but many types of waxes (this is a large class of organic chemicals called waxes) are extracted from petroleum - but petroleum is also a natural product ! Also true artificial waxes exist, obtained from polyethylene.
