What else can I help you with?
What burns on a candle the wick or the wax?
the wick Burns but it produces heat that melts the wax
What are the products when wax burns?
the product is when parafin wax combines with oxygen.
What physical and chemical changes occur when a wax candle burn?
Some wax burns, and as it does so, chemical changes occurs. Wax converts to CO2, CO, and H2O. That is an exothermic reaction The rest of the wax melts with the increased temperature. That is the physical change.
When wax burns energy is released as what?
When wax burns, energy is released in the form of heat and light. This is due to the combustion of the hydrocarbons in the wax, producing carbon dioxide and water vapor along with the energy.
What does the wax of a candle react with when it burns?
Oxygen.
What is when a candle burns and liquid wax is forming?
When a candle burns, the heat melts the wax, which then becomes liquid and flows down the sides of the candle. This process is called wax pooling. The liquid wax provides fuel for the flame to continue burning.
Where is the wax of the candle going?
The wax of the candle is being consumed through the process of combustion. As the wick burns, it melts the wax, turning it into vapor and releasing carbon dioxide and water vapor into the air.
Which gas in the air reacts with the wax as it burns?
oxygen
What burns the wax to make a fire?
Oxygen and flame.
Can refried beans be used to treat burns?
Re-fried beans can't be used to treat burns.
What is the change of state in a lit candle?
The change of state in a lit candle is from solid (wax) to liquid (molten wax) to gas (vaporized wax) as the heat from the flame melts the wax and turns it into vapor that burns, releasing heat and light.
How does the state of matter of wax in a candle change when the candle it lit?
When a candle is lit, the solid wax melts and turns into liquid wax. As the candle burns, the liquid wax is drawn up the wick by capillary action and evaporates, creating a gas that then burns and produces heat and light.
