Because a candle is made of wax and the fire which is on the wax melts it making it smaller and smaller until it disappears. The same occurs to the wick (the bit that actually burns) The candle contains a flamable liquid, normally an oil which soaks in to teh wick and then is burned off

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!

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.
Can a candle in a jar last forever?

Why don't candles in jars last forever?
Because the heat of the flame causes the wax melts away after a while. Though some people tip out the hot wax causing the candle not to last as long. You can buy long lasting candles that last like 10-20 years. -Liviee :D
