What atoms are candle wax made of?

Candle wax is made of molecules that primarily consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The main types of molecules in candle wax are hydrocarbons like alkanes, which form the long chains that make up the wax. Other elements like oxygen and smaller amounts of other trace elements may also be present in candle wax.


What type of candle burns for the longest time?

Well it depends where to fire is situated, how big the fire is, at what pace is it burning whatever is on fire, and how long you can manage to keep it going. But technically it can keep going forever. The chances of that happening are extreamly slim ,and i doubt can really be done.


What kind of wax does a candle maker use?

What is a candle?

A candle is a device for providing light or dispersing fragrance. The body of a candle is comprised of a solid fuel source, usually paraffin wax. A wick runs through the center of the body of the candle from the bottom, extending out of the top. The wick, which acts as a fuel pump when the candle is burning, is generally made of cotton fibers that have been braided together. You can obtain candles in a variety of styles. The main types of candle are : Taper, Formal, Pillar, Column, Container and Votive. Inside a candle is a string like material that helps keep the flame going. Going a layer out is nothing but wax.


What type of burn is caused by napalm thermite or magnesium?

These burns can be difficult to extinguish and may also produce toxic fumes that can be harmful if inhaled. Immediate medical attention is necessary for these types of burns.

What is regular candle?

There are so many types of candles. When you say a regular candle, it has to be the most common form of candles. It could be a uncolored paraffin taper candle. That is the most common type of candle.

What types of energy is used in a candle?

A candle primarily produces light and heat energy through the process of combustion. The chemical potential energy stored in the wax is transformed into thermal energy (heat) and electromagnetic radiation (light) when the candle burns.


What brand of candles burns the longest?

The length of time that a candle burns isn't dependent on the manufacturer of the candle, but on the diameter of the candle and the density of the wax. For example, a taper candle (tall and skinny) will burn more quickly than a pillar candle (more an an inch or two in diameter). A solid wax candle, being more dense, will burn more slowly than a honeycomb candle which is a little bit of wax with lots of air cells in it.

What is formed when a candle is burned?

That depends on what kind of candle. For traditional wax candles, it depends on what the wax is made from, as well as what the wick is made of, but generally speaking, what is formed when you burn these types of candles is CO2, as well as any impurities in the candle's wick, and whatever burns off from the candle's wax.Believe it or not, candle wax isn't just there to hold the wick up. It's actually a major factor in the burning of the candle, as when it melts, the flame on the wick causes it to vaporize and burn, thus, whatever the wax is made from, whatever you get from a combustion reaction with oxygen and that substance, that's the rest of the product.
