    experiments to investigate the chemistry of the burning of a candle. The teacher provided the following chemical equation to describe the burning‚ or combustion‚ in the candle: Hydrocarbon fuel + O2  CO2 + H2O The candle we used was a small‚ white emergency candle about 3.5 cm tall. The candle had already been used by someone else because I could see from the black wick that it had been lit before. When we lit the candle I noticed that at first it was only the wick that was burning. Eventually‚ after

    From the experimental data and through its analysis‚ the enthalpy of combustion for the five alcohols were determined; methanol‚ ethanol‚ propanol‚ butanol‚ and pentanol. As the line of best fit in the graph suggests‚ the enthalpy of combustion increased as the sizes of the molecules increased. This was predicted in the hypothesis and proves it to be correct. As seen on the graph‚ the enthalpy of combustion increases from 140kJ/mol for methanol‚ which has the smallest molecular mass‚ to 530kJ/mol
