It seems that they would, because there is only a certain amour of oxygen inside the dome, and more candles would use it up faster than a few candles would.

Why does a unscented candle burn faster then a scented candle?

Unscented candles typically burn faster than scented candles because the absence of fragrance oils in unscented candles allows them to consume the wax at a quicker rate. Scented candles contain extra additives like fragrance oils which can slow down the burning process by requiring more heat to vaporize the fragrance.


Why is the smaller diameter candle burns faster than bigger diameter candle?

candles burn as much wax as the wick can bring to the flame. It is typically a constant amount of wax being burned. Smaller diameter candles have less wax and therefor run out of wax to burn sooner.


Does a shape of a candle affect how fast a candle melts?

Yes,you can kiss my butt and get back to work Yes,you can kiss my buttand get back to work Yes,you can kiss my butt and get back to work


Do candles that are frozen burn slower than room temperature candles?

NO! I have no clue how this myth ever got started! The only thing you do by placing a candle in the freezer is ruin the candle. First, you introduce moisture into the wicking, which can make the candle difficult to light, cause it to spark or sizzle, or simply not burn at all. Second, The candle may crack. This can be especially dangerous should the candle crack after it has already been lit! Third, There will be less room in your freezer for your favorite frozen snack! Seriously, this is not a good idea. Keep candles in a cool, dry place. Not a frozen one!


You need a good explanation for this question What burns faster paper wood or cardboard?

Paper burns faster as there is less mass to burn and less energy in paper, If it were wood, due to the mass of the wood it would burn Longer and brighter and less lengthened and less brighter for Cardboard.

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.


Why do candles burn better in winter?

In the winter, The air is less humid.


What is the reason for a yellow candle to burn faster than a colored candle'?

actually the color does not effect how fast the candle burn, i got confused of " Does candle's color effect how candle's burn?"but i think the color does not effect how candle burns. But some people will think that the white or yello candle will burn slower because color will obsorb the heat more. Hope i have answered your question.

Will a candle burn if its red better that a regular one?

No. Colored candles will, in general, burn slightly less well than untinted ones.


Why does floating candles float higher in the water as they burn?

the mass decreases as the wax burns so it displaces less water


Why does less dense wood burn faster?

more space for air (oxygen)


What is the dependent variable of do white candles burn faster than colored candles?

All else being held constant - the dependent variable is the composition of the chemical(s) used to color the colored candles. Some additives will speed burning because they are themselves flammable. Some will slow burning because they are less flammable. Some will cause the melting point of the wax to be depressed so that the wax melts quicker - and as it melts and drains away, the candle will burn faster. A more critical factor in reality though is that colored candles are usually made with a different composition than white candles to make it easier to color them. Not only do they contain something to give them color - the composition of the wax the color is added to is different as well. Once you change the basic composition of the candle that much it is tough to compare the candles. It becomes like trying to compare burning oak to burning pine. Yeah - they are similar but you really are not burning the same thing and you don't expect them to burn at the same rate. By controlling the composition of the wax, you can make candles burn faster or slower - without respect to what color they are or if they have no color at all (assuming you don't call white a color).

Why candles goes out faster with increased height?

the higher you go with the candle the less oxygen there is and fire needs oxygen or it will go out


What types of wood burn the fastest?

Less dense wood will burn fastest, such as balsa wood. In general, the faster a tree grows, the less dense the wood from that tree will be.
