Solution

Reasoning out:1.5 Marks for each change

When a candle burns, both physical and chemical changes take place. On burning the candle wax melts but can be solidified again on cooling. This shows that melting of wax is a physical change.
Burning of candle also produces light and carbon dioxide. Hence, it is also a chemical change.
