No, a clinical thermometer is not suitable for measuring the temperature of a candle flame. Candle flames burn at temperatures much higher than the range typically measured by a clinical thermometer. To measure the temperature of a candle flame, a specialized high-temperature thermometer or pyrometer would be more appropriate.
One way to measure the amount of heat from a burnt candle is by using a calorimeter, which can quantify the amount of heat released during the combustion process. Another method is to measure the temperature change in the surroundings caused by the burning candle, as an increase in temperature indicates the amount of heat released.
One way to determine room temperature without using a thermometer is by observing the behavior of objects in the room. For example, if a candle burns steadily without flickering, the room is likely warm. If the candle flickers or goes out easily, the room may be cooler. Additionally, you can also pay attention to how you feel in the room - if you are comfortable, the room is likely at a moderate temperature.
The temperature of a candle jar inhibits the growth of psychrotrophs, and the average temperature inside the candle jar is 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yes. When a candle is in cold temperatures, it tends to melt much slower than a candle burning in room temperature.
The color of a candle does not determine its temperature. The primary factors that influence a candle's temperature are the type of wax used, the size and design of the wick, and external conditions such as air temperature and drafts.
The burning temperature of a candle flame is typically between 1400-1600 degrees Fahrenheit (760-870 degrees Celsius). The temperature varies depending on the type of wax and additives in the candle.
These are some hints that will help you to answeryour questions:ExperimentStep 1 Measure 100 mL of water and pour it into an empty soda can. Suspend the thermometer in the water using Sticky Tack in the lip to hold it in place. The thermometer should not touch the bottom or sides of the can. This device is called a calorimeter.Step 2 Cut the other soda can 1 or 2 inches from the bottom. Throw away the top. Measure the mass of the bottom of the soda can. Measure the mass of the candle, and place it in the bottom of the soda can.Step 3 Check the temperature of the water. Light the paraffin candle and, holding your calorimeter with the tongs, move it over the burning paraffin just high enough so there is enough oxygen to keep the fire burning. Be careful not to touch the can or burn yourself.CalculationsStep 4 Watch the thermometer and note the temperature when the candle stops burning. Measure the mass of the candle in the bottom of the soda can and subtract the mass of the bottom of the soda can as measured in Step 2.Step 1 Subtract the final candle mass from the initial candle mass to calculate the total mass burned. Subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature to measure the change in temperature.Step 2 Assume 1 mL of water equals one gram; therefore, this experiment used 100 grams of water, and it takes 4.18 Joules (J) to raise 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius. Multiply the grams of water by the change in temperature by 4.18 J to measure the total thermal energy it took to bring the temperature to its highest point in Joules.Step 3 Divide the the thermal energy created by mass (in grams) of the candle that were burned to calculate the heat of combustion of paraffin wax expressed in J/g.
the atmospheres temperature changes the candle in size. i am a scientist, and have done this experiment many times. believe in my answer, for my answer is the ultimate truth.
glass tube
its a gas, its called polyhydroxide. (g)
They get about 140 degrees.
