Which one takes longer to burn rubber or a candle?

Rubber typically takes longer to burn than a candle because rubber is a much denser and more durable material compared to the wax in a candle. Additionally, rubber often requires higher temperatures to ignite and sustain a fire.


What candle burns out first an oil candle or a wax candle?

Generally more energy is in a solid versus a liquid, so a wax candle will have more energy than an oil based candle which means the solid wax candle will burn out last over the oil one. Actually, I can't think of a case where the reverse is true. And btw, wax candle has around 42 kJ/g with oil candle being around ~30 kJ/g (type of oil will make a difference here). tho' i agree with most of the above, the most important part of any candle is the oil/oil byproduct/animal fat or beeswax that it is made from! a wax candle will NOT burn until it heats up enough to dissolve into an oil - which occurs between 140-160 degrees! therefore, an oil candle and a wax candle burn out at the same time!


How would a larger diameter candle would produce a larger flame?

The size of the wick dertermines how large the flame is.


What kind of candle burns the fastest?

the one with the thickest wick.The flame from the candle melts the fuel (beeswax, tallow, cocoa butter, paraffin, or other hard waxy fat substance) which is then drawn up the candle wick and fed to the flame. The thicker the wick, the more fuel can be fed to the flame, making the flame bigger and hotter and using up the candle faster.


How will different types of wax in a candle affect its burn rate?

This is not a simple answer additives in the wax, length of the wick, the width of the wick, or even the wick type, whether the wax is free standing or in an container, or even if the candle has been over dipped. All of these factors make it practicably impossible to answer your question correctly. Gel Wax has a higher melt point about 180°F to 230°F Bee's wax has a longer burn rate then when compared to paraffin and melts around 144 to 147 °F paraffin melts around 117°F to 147°F

What is the difference between melting of candle wax and burning of candle?

Burning a candle is the process in which the wick is burnt. The wax is there to make the wick burn slower in order to let the candle burn for longer. Melting wax is part of the process but not burning the candle itself.


What Burns longer a white candle or black candle?

The color of a candle does not affect its burn time. The burn time of a candle is determined by its size, wax type, and wick quality.


Does the thickness of a candle affect the burn time of a candle?

Yes, the thickness of a candle can affect its burn time. Thicker candles tend to burn for a longer time compared to thinner candles due to the larger amount of wax they contain. Thinner candles typically burn faster because they have less wax to consume.


Does a soy candle burn as long as a beeswax candle?

Beeswax is known to be a long burning wax. Even so, it burns the same amount of time as a candle made from soy. The length of time a candle burns depends upon how tight the wax was wrapped during production. The tighter the wrap, the longer the burn.

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 colors of candles can burn longer?

The color of a candle does not impact its burning time. The burn time of a candle is primarily determined by its size, wax type, and wick quality. Soy or beeswax candles tend to burn longer than paraffin candles.


Does a candle need to have wax for it to burn?

How is candle wax and petrol similar?

Candle wax and petrol are both hydrocarbon-based substances that can ignite and burn. They also both have a waxy consistency and are used as fuel sources for combustion. However, petrol typically contains more volatile components and is a liquid, while candle wax is solid at room temperature.
