Question: Do white candles burn faster than colored candles?

Hypothesis: I think that the colored candle will melt faster

Materials: White candle, colored (blue) candle, a lighter, and two candle holders

Procedure: During the day and when you are at home, I will take take white candle and the colored candles and light them and see which candle burns faster.

Summary/Abstract: Do white candles burn faster than colored candles? My hypothesis is that the colored candle will melt faster than the white candle. But what candle burns faster? The procedure is during the day and when you are at home. I will test both candles differently. First, I will light the white candle and see if it loses wax. After that, I will take a picture to make sure what candle burned faster. Then, I will light the colored candle and see if it loses more wax than the white candle or loses less or the same amount. If the white candle burns faster than it isn't a good candle and the colored candle is successful. But, if the white candle burns slower than the colored candle, that means that the colored candle isn't successful and the white candle is successful. If they are the same amount then I guess they are good and kind of bad.
