Wax hardens quickly because it has a low melting point and cools rapidly when exposed to air or a cooler surface. The cooling process causes the molecules in the wax to solidify and form a hardened state.
What is observed when drop of water is placed on the molten wax in the bowl of a lighted paraffin candle?
When a drop of water is placed on molten wax of a lit paraffin candle, the water drop will sizzle and evaporate due to the high temperature of the wax. The heat causes the water to quickly vaporize and escape as steam, often creating a small popping sound as it does so.

WHY do candles burn faster at room temperature then hot or cold?
Candles burn faster at room temperature because the wax melts more easily, allowing the wick to draw up the liquid wax quicker. In hotter temperatures, the wax may melt too fast, causing the candle to burn more quickly, while colder temperatures can make the wax harden and burn more slowly.

How do you get melted wax off a pair of pants?
Place a paper towel over the wax and iron over it on a low setting. The heat will melt the wax, and the paper towel will absorb it. Repeat until the wax is gone. Alternatively, freeze the pants to harden the wax, then gently scrape it off with a dull knife.
How can I effectively wax a bike chain?
