What is the physical change in a wax taper when ligting a firwork?
When lighting a firework with a wax taper, the physical change in the wax taper is the melting of the wax due to the heat from the flame. The solid wax turns into a liquid form as it absorbs heat energy, making it easier to transfer the flame to the firework.
What is wax taper and the physical reaction to a firework?
A wax taper is a thin wax-coated string used as a candle. When ignited, the wax melts and the wick burns, providing a small, steady flame. The physical reaction to a firework involves a rapid chemical reaction within the firework's shell. When ignited, the gunpowder and other chemicals in the firework combust, producing heat, light, sound, and gas that propel the firework into the air and create the colorful display we see.
What chemical change happens when you lite a firework with wax paper?
When you light a firework with wax paper, the heat from the flame causes the wax to melt and burn. This chemical change releases energy in the form of heat and light, igniting the firework composition inside the firework casing. The combustion reactions in the firework composition generate gases and produce the colorful light and loud sounds associated with fireworks.
What is made with wax that you can light?
Candles are typically made with wax and can be lit for illumination or ambiance.
When a wax taper is used to light a firework is it a chemical or physical change?
Phisical re action: when the wax turns to liquid when the liquid cools down it turns to solid which goes back to its own form again soryy i don't know the chemical reaction
What is wax taper?
A wax taper is a type of candle that is long and slender, typically used for lighting purposes. It is made by dipping a wick repeatedly into melted wax to create a taper shape. Wax tapers are often used in ceremonies, religious rituals, or as decorative lighting.
What is the chemical change when a wax taper is lit?
When a wax taper is lit, a chemical change called combustion occurs. Combustion is a rapid chemical reaction between a fuel (in this case, the wax) and an oxidant (usually oxygen in the air) that produces heat and light energy. In the case of a wax taper, the wax molecules break down into smaller molecules like carbon dioxide and water vapor, releasing energy in the form of heat and light.

What happens to light when it hits wax paper?
Light hitting wax paper will be partially absorbed, transmitted, and reflected. The wax paper is semi-transparent, so some light will pass through while some will bounce off the surface. The absorbed light energy may cause the wax paper to heat up slightly.
What energy changes happen when you light candles on a cake?
When you light candles on a cake, chemical energy in the wick and wax is converted into heat and light energy through combustion. The heat energy released causes the wax to melt and vaporize, providing fuel for the flame to continue burning. The light energy emitted is a byproduct of the chemical reaction taking place during combustion.
Why don't candles light on fire?
Because they are wax and wax doesn't burn, it melts.:-)
