What else can I help you with?
Why when a drop of wax from a burning candle falls on your hand do you feel heat?
Heat is transferred to your hand by conduction. The particles of the wax are moving faster than the particles in your skin and energy is transferred by collisions between the two sets of particles.
What is observed when drop of water is placed on the molten wax in the bowl of a lighted paraffin candle?
When a drop of water is placed on molten wax of a lit paraffin candle, the water drop will sizzle and evaporate due to the high temperature of the wax. The heat causes the water to quickly vaporize and escape as steam, often creating a small popping sound as it does so.
What is depilatory wax?
....painful! Its hair-removal wax!
Is molten wax a strong weak or non electrolytr?
Molten wax is a non-electrolyte. This means it does not dissociate into ions when melted and therefore does not conduct electricity.
Is wax an electrolyte?
No, wax is not an electrolyte. Electrolytes are substances that conduct electricity when dissolved in water or molten form, while wax is a non-conductive material.
What is the freezing point of molten candle wax?
range from 47oC to 81oC
At what temperature does molten wax become a solid?
25 degrees C
What is a drop of sealing wax called?
A drop of sealing wax is typically referred to as a seal. It is used to close envelopes and secure important documents.
How fast does a drop of wax harden?
The hardening speed of a drop of wax depends on its composition, temperature, and surrounding conditions. Typically, wax hardens relatively quickly, within a few minutes to an hour after being dropped. Factors like the type of wax, airflow, and thickness of the drop can influence the hardening process.
What is a drop of ceiling wax?
A drop of ceiling wax refers to the practice of sealing a letter with melted wax dripped onto the envelope closure and impressed with a personal seal to ensure privacy and security of the contents.
How does wax burn?
Heat from the flame melts the wax. The molten wax is drawn up the wick by capillary action. Heat from the flame vaporizes the molten wax in the wick as the wax enters the flame. The hot wax vapors burn as they mix with air.
When molten wax is freezing and turning back into a solid what happens to the temperature?
It goes down :P
