Question:

Can i melt small copper wires with candles?

I want to Melt some Tiny Copper wires in my house.. Is a candle enough to Make them Liquefied?

Answer:

Yes, You can Melt small and thin Copper wires with candles .
If you want
Copper - Melting point?1084.62 °C,?1984.32 °F Candle flame - 1,400 °C (2,600 °F) Very thin wires can be melted, but the copper will quickly be oxidised. Thicker wires will conduct the heat away more quickly than it can heat the copper to melting point.
