1. The document describes an experiment to investigate the cooling curve of candle wax by heating it until melted and then measuring its temperature every 30 seconds as it cooled. 2. The melting point of candle wax was determined to be 53.5°C as the temperature remained constant for 3 minutes during the solidification process. 3. According to the kinetic theory, particles in solids vibrate in place while liquid particles can move freely, explaining why brown flakes in the wax remained still after solidification.
