Explanation:

When wax is heated then the molecules of wax starts to move due to increase in temperature. As a result, force of attraction between the molecules will decrease and they will start to move from one place to another.

Due to heating, the wax molecules will start moving randomly. Hence, wax will convert into liquid state.

When should a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves be worn in the laboratory?
Sever21 [200]
I would say that you should wear a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves when the teacher says so - not everything in a lab is dangerous, so there is no need to always wear these. But when the teacher says you should - then you should.
