Yes. Three elements are required for any flame:
# heat # oxygen # fuel
this stupid website is so awful it will not answer anything I want it to answer. All I wanted to know was what elements are in the air in the candle and in the air when the candle burns? and they did not have it I thought it said that they would give u all the answers u need but I am not going on this website ever ever again
When a candle burns, the paraffin wax reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water vapor. The carbon atoms in the paraffin combine with oxygen from the air to produce heat, light, carbon dioxide, and water. This chemical reaction is why the substances in paraffin change when a candle burns.
Candle wax typically reacts with oxygen in the air when it is burning, producing heat, light, and carbon dioxide. The chemical reaction that occurs during the burning of candle wax is called combustion.
When a candle burns the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light.If you give the candle more oxygen then it will burn brighter ... but it will burn out more quickly.The burning of the candle (a chemical reaction) is affected by the number of oxygen molecules around it.So the speed of the chemical reaction is affected by the concentration of oxygen
Oxygen can not burn in air.
It burns the oxygen. r
when a candle burns, the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light. If you give the candle more oxygen then it will burn brighter, but it will burn out more quickly. It all depends whether the candle has a high or low concentration of oxygen. The main reason why the candle burns brighter is because there is a better chance that the oxygen will bump into the wax on the wick. when a candle burns, the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light.

The candle wax melting exposes the wick, where the actual burning takes place. Oxygen in the air combines with the vaporized wax in the wick, generating heat and giving off carbon dioxide (also traces gases and often carbon soot). (see related link)
When a candle burns, the carbon in the wax combines with oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide gas. This process releases heat and light, which is why the candle produces a flame.
YES. The available amount of oxygen in air regulates the candles burn. The oxygen burns with the paraffin wax. Both are consumed. A mix of more oxygen will burn faster and hotter. Rapid oxydation is dangerous.

Oxygen is necessary for combustion to take place. When a candle burns, it reacts with oxygen in the air to produce a flame. Increasing the oxygen supply will result in a hotter and more efficient burn, causing the candle to burn more quickly. Conversely, reducing the oxygen supply will cause the flame to burn more slowly or even extinguish.
Vapours of the candle wax, which contain carbon and hydrogen, react with oxygen in the air to create carbon dioxide and water. Often, the combustion is incomplete and small amounts of carbon monoxide as well as carbon (soot) are released.
Yes. When magnesium burns in air, it combines with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide, MgO.
When a candle burns, the paraffin wax reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water vapor. The carbon atoms in the paraffin combine with oxygen from the air to produce heat, light, carbon dioxide, and water. This chemical reaction is why the substances in paraffin change when a candle burns.
Wax is made of hydrogen and carbon. When a candle burns, the hydrogen and carbon from the wax combine with the oxygen in the air to become carbon dioxide and water vapor. Most of the matter in the candle ends up as these two gases. If you are looking for candle making supplies, please check out ohcans candle.
Assuming it's a hydrocarbon, one of the reactants will be wax, in the form CxHx+2 Another reactant would be Oxygen, in the air. The products would be water, H2O and Carbon Dioxide, CO2.
