ACTIVITY:
What Happens when a
Candle Wax Is Heated?
Objective
Describe what happens
to a candle wax when it
is heated
Galamiton:
Small pieces of candle wax,
1candle, matches, thick cloth,
big spoon
ceramic saucer
Procedure:
The teacher will
demonstrate the activity.
Pupils will prepare their
notes and record their
observation.
Procedure:
1. Put a small piece of candle wax in the spoon. Wrap
the handle of the spoon with a thick cloth.
Question:
a. In what form of matter is candle wax?
(solid, liquid ,gas)
2. Light the candle.Let it stand on a ceramic saucer
3. Hold the spoon with the candle wax over the flame.
4. Heat the spoon with candle wax for 5 minutes.
Observe what happens to the candle wax.
Discussion:
Answering Questions
from the activity
 Discussion
1. In what form of matter is candle wax?
2. What happens to the candle wax when it is
heated?
3. Is there a change to the appearance of candle
wax? In what form is it now?
4. Why does this change happen?
5. What is the effect of applying heat on the candle
wax?
Science Concept:
 Phase change can happen when the
temperature of the material is increased.
 Melting happens by increasing the
temperature of the materials.
 Solids can be changed into liquids by
melting.
