Does the color of the candle affect the amount of time a candle will burn?

no, actually it depends on the wick of the candle. the color has nothing to do with it. A candle with a straight wick burns better and longer than a candle with a crooked wick. Also the wax has a lot to do with it. Wax is the most important ingredient that makes a candle burn faster. soft wax has a higher oil content and lower melt temperature; therefore, it burns faster. Candles in jars have a soft wax, and pillar candles have a hard wax. the longest burning candles are pillar candles made of a blend of beeswax and paraffin. To sum it up: color makes no difference at how fast a candle burns. black candles burn no faster than white candles. Wick size is the primary factor determining the candle burning rate. the bigger wick will deliver more fuel to the burning flame.

How does oxygen Affect how fast a candle will burn?

when a candle burns, the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light. If you give the candle more oxygen then it will burn brighter, but it will burn out more quickly. It all depends whether the candle has a high or low concentration of oxygen. The main reason why the candle burns brighter is because there is a better chance that the oxygen will bump into the wax on the wick. when a candle burns, the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light.
