SCIENCE BY CANDLELIGHT
What burns to sustain a candle flame?
What is the chemical reaction that occurs when you light a candle?
What is the shape of a candle flame & why is it shaped that way?
Join us on a scientific adventure at the 2024 Holiday Science Lecture for Families as we take a close look at the candle and learn about the scientific ideas it inspires. We will use experiments, interactive demonstrations, and family activities to show how exciting, visually beautiful and scientifically informative a candle can be when examined closely!
