Answer 1

Answer:

It will be slower if the wax candle is inside the glass recipient.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the definition of a combustion reaction which is based on the reaction with the available oxygen, if the was candle is contained in a glass-recipient less available oxygen will be for the reaction, for that reason, the combustion will proceed slower than if it is uncovered as more available oxygen will be for the reaction.
