Answer:

candle is a stick made of wax with a string (a thin piece of rope) straight in the middle. If someone puts the string on fire, the flame burns slowly but for a long time. Fire can burn string very fast. But in a candle, the string does not burn fast, because the fire melts the wax instead.

Few lines on the candle are:

  • A candle is a burnable hard substance with a combustive wick embedded in it, such as tallow or tax, that provides light and, in some circumstances, scent. A candle could also be utilized as a provenance of heat or as a timekeeper.
  • Usually, a chandler is somebody who produces candles.  From modest countertop candlesticks, also referred to as candle holders, to ornate candelabra and chandeliers, many mechanisms have been devised to hold candles. 
  • A heat source (often a single spark from a match or lighter) is utilized to ignite the candle flame, which dissolves and evaporates a little quantity of fuel, allowing the candle to burn (the wax). When the fuel is evaporated, it acts with oxygen in the atmosphere to ignite and create a steady flame.
  • The candle is kept burning by a self-sustaining cycle of occurrences: the heat source melts the surface of the solid fuel mass; the liquid fuel then flows upward via the wick by capillary forces; the liquid fuel eventually vaporises to ignite within the candle flame.
  • The candle becomes shorter as the gasoline (wax) melts and burns. The flame consumes sections of the candle that are not releasing liquefied fuel.
