The
simulation shows the reaction:
|
|
Combustion
only happens when the reaction mixture is at a high
temperature.
 |
When it is
hot enough for wax to react with
oxygen, the wax is in the gas state. This
is why the reaction is a flame. |

|
|
When it is hot enough
for carbon to react with
oxygen, the carbon is still in the solid
state.
There is no flame. |
