Candle experiment

Candle experiment

We discovered that the top candle went out first followed by the shorter candle. The tall candle went out in 4 seconds. The short candle went out in 12 seconds. We think oxygen is forced to the bottom as the smoke/heat rose. We talked about stopping and dropping when there is a fire. Also to not open a door that would allow more oxygen into the room that has a fire. The procedures for a fire makes more sense since oxygen is heavier than the gas produced by fire.
