When Iron is exposed to humid atmosphere, oxygen reacts with iron to form ferric oxide. Fe₂ O₃. It has different color and physical properties.  It is not possible to obtain iron and oxygen from iron oxide in a normal way.  The molecules of iron and oxygen react chemically forming a new molecule.

When the candle is burnt, the wax containing complex carbon (organic) compounds decompose in various stages at different temperatures. It gives rise to carbon dioxide and other gases. It is chemical change as molecular structure of wax is decomposed into simpler organic compounds.
