Candle Experiment Lab Report

Does the number of candles effect the height of the water? This was the question we asked for our experiment. The hypothesis was that the number of candles does effect the height of the water. If the number of candles does effect the height of the water, then as the number of candles burned increases, the height of the liquid will increase.

C. An unknown, rectangular substance measures 3.6 cm high, 4.21 cm long, and 1.17 cm wide.

.. Should young people do something different from conventional patterns like the young America Christopher candles did?

- Results: When a lighted match was held 2cm away from the unlighted candle in its smoke, the flame would jump from the match to the wick having been carried by the smoke.

The release or agitation of the water would release the co2 causing the water to rise and evaporate.

The observations acquired from this lab indicates that the test tubes that have a minimal amount of oxygen had an increase of soot production and test tubes that experienced complete combustion had no sort of Soot production whatsoever. The observations demonstrates that when the oxygen levels decrease, the production and soot will increase. (Refer to Appendix B Figure 1). This is because within incomplete combustion, the byprouctions will be Carbon, Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide and water, all together to produce what is called , Soot. On the contrary, test tubes that experienced complete combustion had byproducts that were only Carbon dioxide and water, which therefore no sort of soot was produced.

So this is what keeps the air trapped when vertically held in water. The scientist then got another soda can and added water with an eye dropper. He put the can on the heater, the can instantly made the water from the eye dropper evaporate into water vapor. Then the scientist again and inserted the can into the water the results, the same with the can being full of

The white candles burn faster than blue candles, in our experiment we took two colors of candles white and blue, then burned them until there was no wax left. It took four trials to try and do this experiment and to get a good amount of results to compare. The white candle in all three trials burned faster than the blue one. In our hypothesis we thought that the blue candle would burn faster because the chemicals put into the candle to make the color would burn fatser. What actually happened was the white candle burned faster. I thought the white candle would burn slower because they are used for emergency candles when say the power goes out, well that's what people said ,but that's not what happened. So the white candle burned fastest and

The soda ash form experiment 3 was obtained. A 250 ml beaker was obtained and rinsed.

From this lab we can conclude that the main sources for energy of candles are oxygen, the wick, and wax in gas form. Although oxygen was not tested, it is know that all candles need oxygen and that when the candle’s supply of oxygen is restricted the oxygen will be used up and go out. The wick was proven to be a fuel when the string in step 2 lit on fire. Wax in gas form was proven in step 5 where the candle was lit without using the wick. Solid wax was disproved in step 3 when it melted into liquid wax. But liquid wax was also disproven when trying in step 4 to light it on fire. The lab successfully showed the process in which a candle burns when we observed the flame. When the candle is lit it is very clear that the wick pulls up the melted

mold-001_S.jpgThese votive molds are our most popular selling molds and are very easy to use. They produce a votive candle which is about 2 ounces in size and will burn for approximately 15 hours.

Inspired by the rustic and California style, this Home California Romantic Single Wick Candle by Ralph Lauren is an elegant way to fragrance your well-appointed interior. It unfolds the comforting aroma of cashmere wood, incense, elemi and smooth vanilla, poured in a gold-tone glass vessel. A wonderful gift idea for the festive season, this candle is made with natural soy wax and a lead-free candle wick to give an even burn for up to 120 hours.

The purpose of this lab is to evaluate how surface area affects the speed at which paper combusts. Once completed, it will be known if a folded paper with, a small surface area, burns faster or slower than an unfolded paper. In addition to this the lab will demonstrate how expanding the paper's surface area (done by ripping it into pieces and crumpling) affects the speed of combustion.

If you love candles the way that I do, then you probably have plenty of them around at all times. I generally have at least one scented candle burning in my home (as long as I’m home, that is!). Unscented candles are also a welcome accessory in my living environment. They can immediately brighten any room, and they come in a broad range of shapes and sizes to match the mood and moment. In fact, I usually burn unscented candles when I have guests with allergies or with particular sensitivity to scent.
