Why does blowing out a candle work to extinguish the flame?

Blowing out a candle extinguishes the flame because it disrupts the balance of oxygen needed for combustion. When you blow on the flame, you remove the oxygen surrounding the wick, which is necessary for the flame to continue burning. This sudden lack of oxygen causes the flame to go out.


Why does the candle flames go out when you blow it?

When you blow out a candle, you disrupt the balance between the oxygen supply and the fuel (wax) being consumed by the flame. When you remove the oxygen by blowing, the flame no longer has the necessary element to sustain itself, causing it to extinguish.


How can I safely put out a sterno flame?

To safely put out a sterno flame, carefully cover it with a metal lid or snuffer to cut off the oxygen supply. Do not blow on the flame or attempt to extinguish it with water. Wait for the flame to completely go out before moving the sterno container.


What caused the candle to go out?

Well mainly pressure against the flame WHEN YOU BLOW IT: Well when you put air pressure aginst the flame it causes it to go out PUT SOMETHING ON TOP: Well when you put somehting on top(such as a metal candle burner) it puts pressure against the flame...it aventually burns out


Will wind put out fire?

wind will normally spread fires because it blow heat with it which will cause other things to burn. When you blow a candle out it will always go because the flame is so small.


Why does the Furnace flame go out and blow cold air. When I switch it off and let it reset it will work fine.?

Could be a bad computer board or flame sensor. If you have to keep resetting it-the computer board is more likely the problem.


Why does the burning candle go out when we blow on it?

Blowing on the candle increases the rate of oxygen supply, causing the flame to burn more rapidly and use up the available fuel (wax) quicker. Eventually, the flame runs out of fuel and is extinguished.


Why Never blow out a gas flame from a bun sen burner?

If you blow out the flame without turning off the gas, gas continues to flow. Exposure to too much gas can kill you.


Why don't candles go out when you blow slowly?

When you blow slowly, you are actually replenishing the flame with air that has more oxygen than the used up air you displaced. When you blow hard, some of the following things can make the flame go out. The velocity of the air could be lowering the air pressure around the candle too much causing it to be unable to extract enough oxygen to sustain the flame. The amount of carbon dioxide in your breath could also make it go out. Try this experiment. Take a deep breath and hold it for 30 seconds. then get real close to the candle and blow slowly. It will probably go out, since most of the oxygen in your breath is gone and what is left in its place is carbon monoxide. It could also be the cooling effect of your breath on the wax when you blow hard. Each case will probably be a little of each.

Why a flame goes upward?

The gases produced during the process of burning are hot. Hot air is lighter than the cold air. So the flames go upwards.


Why does the candle blow out when you cover it with something?

When you cover a candle, you restrict the oxygen supply that is necessary for the flame to continue burning. Without oxygen, the combustion process cannot be sustained, causing the flame to extinguish.
