1. 🧊 Physical Changes in a Burning Candle, 🕯️ Melting of wax: Heat from the flame melts solid wax into liquid wax., The wax remains the same substance, so this is a physical change., 💨 Evaporation: Liquid wax near the wick changes into wax vapour. This is a physical change., ❄️ Solidification: Some melted wax cools and changes back into solid wax. This is also a physical change., 2. 🔥 Chemical Change in a Burning Candle, 🔥 Combustion of wax vapour: Wax vapour reacts with oxygen in the air., 💨 Carbon dioxide and 💧 water are formed., 🌡️ Heat and ✨ light are released., 🧪 Since new substances are formed, this is a chemical change., 🧠 Conclusion, 🕯️ Burning candle = Physical changes + Chemical change, Melting → Evaporation → Solidification = Physical changes, 🔥 Burning of wax vapour → New substances formed = Chemical change
