some are oxygen and carbon dioxide

The materials of the candle as waxes, paraffin.
C25H52 is what candle wax is. If you want the formula for the combustion of a candle, add O2, then predict the result
It goes out since it has no Oxygen to aide in Combustion.
When a candle is burnt, the flame and the wan get oxidised for combustion and carbon dioxide is released.
appropriate chemical equation for the combustion of candle?
combustion is burning -_-

A candle uses a combustion reaction to release heat and gas.
The materials of the candle as waxes, paraffin.
The example for this problem wasn't given. The molar heat of combustion of candle wax has assumption which is the heat given off by a candle which equals heat that is captured in the water.
Combustion of candle wax, heat loss within a system, and physical/chemical changes that occur are a result of energy transformers.
Combustion.

there are actually only 3 requirements for combustion. fire needs oxygen, heat, and fuel
An exothermic reaction involves the release of heat into a system. The burning of a candle is combustion reaction. Combustion reaction release heat, and this can be detected and measured by the burning of a candle's wax. From these testable observations it is determined fact that candle burning is indeed exothermic.
Water and carbon dioxide :)
