The correct response is:
a) The energy of the molecules of the wax decreases.
When the temperature of the wax decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules also decreases, meaning they move more slowly.
After a candle is blown out, the wax of the candle decreases in temperature. What happens to the molecules of the wax when the temperature of the wax decreases?
