How a candle works

How a candle works.

 

A candle is made out of hard wax and a wick. A candle is something that will light up if you light the wick on fire you need matches for these to light up.

What causes a candle to work is Oxygen, hard wax, candle, wick, matches.

What effect change, the hard wax turns into liquid wax, the oxygen turns into gas.

How wax ends up on the wick of the candle?

A wick soaks up the wax on the inside of the candle and that's how the wick gets wax on it.
