Group Candle Project

Proposal- How much oxygen does a candle use? Candle and oxygen consumption

Research question- Does candle shape, size,and type affect oxygen consumption?

Hypothesis- Does a larger flame equal faster consumption?

Materials- jar and lid, three different sizes of candles, and lighter

Procedure- Burning variable candles in a jar with a lid measuring time until candle goes out for lack of oxygen.

  1. Helen, I didn't end up getting everyone else's email addresses, could you email me to coordinate who's bringing the materials on Tuesday?
