Why does a candle go out in a bell jar?
It doesn't get any oxygen and therefore the flame goes out
If a plant and a burning candle are placed under a bell jar will the candle burn?
No, the candle will not burn because the flame will consume the oxygen inside the bell jar, creating a vacuum and extinguishing the flame. Oxygen is necessary for combustion to occur, and without it, the candle cannot burn.
How long can a candle stay lit in a upturned jar?
The duration a candle stays lit in an upturned jar depends on factors like the size of the candle, the amount of oxygen available for it to burn, and the quality of the wick. In general, a candle may struggle to stay lit for more than a few minutes in an upturned jar due to limited airflow.
How does the size of the jar affect the burning time of a candle?
The Smaller the jar the less oxygen, the bigger the jar the more oxygen, and since the candle lives of oxygen the biggest jar with the candle in it will take the longest to burn.
Can a candle in a jar last forever?
No, a candle in a jar will not last forever. The candle will eventually burn out as it consumes the wax and wick. The duration of the candle depends on factors such as the size of the candle, the quality of the wax, and the environmental conditions.
Does the temperature of a candle jar inhibit growth of psychrotrophs What is the average temperature inside candle jar and how long does it take flame to burn out?
The temperature of a candle jar inhibits the growth of psychrotrophs, and the average temperature inside the candle jar is 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

Is a candle jar anaerobic?
It is not a truly anaerobic system because there is still some oxygen in the candle jar.
What would happen if you lower a bell jar with the candle inside it without any air entering it?
it would burn out in few seconds. if you take away the air, you also take away the oxygen in it (the air). and fire need oxygen to burn. simple explanation (sorry for bad spelling, I'm danish)
What would happen if you lower a bell jar with the candle inside it withiut any air entering it?
As the candle burns, it consumes oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. If the bell jar is sealed, the oxygen inside gets used up and the candle flame will eventually extinguish once oxygen levels drop too low to sustain combustion. The remaining air will become enriched with carbon dioxide from the burning candle.
What should the total mass of the jar and its contents be after the candle goes out?
The total mass of the jar and its contents remains the same after the candle goes out, as long as nothing is added or removed from the jar. The mass is conserved in a closed system.

Why does a candle gets extinguished when 2 candles of different sizes and same thickness are covered by same bell jar?
As they burn, the candles are using up oxygen under the bell jar. They produce carbon dioxide as a result. Carbon dioxide is havier than air and so collects at the bottom of the bell jar. The lower candle goes out when the level of carbon dioxide gets high enough to "drown" that candles flame - that is, block it from any oxygen. However, it is possible that, before that happens, so much of the oxygen in the bell jar is used up that the remainder is not enough to sustain a flame.
