Well, I'm sorta doing one myself on Which candle burns faster the white candle or the colored candles and strange as it is the white candle was so small and the colored were so long and thin, and they burned much faster so I agree it must be the wax so I kept searching and found out that ( it does in fact depend on the type of wax) thats the main idea, if I was you I would speak about that., keep researching on diff types of wax good luck!=)!

On my science fair project the green, brown red and blue candle all melted down to 8.5 after burning 20 minutes from starting at 10 inches.  On the other hand my 10 inch white candle melted only to 9 inches after 20 minutes.

Well, I think first it depends on the type of wax is the candle made of, Beez wax, Parifin wax or even Soy wax, they make all these different kinds of candles. So, I have to take that into consideration first.
