science still can't explain why the candle goes out or why the water level rises

Candle runs out of phlogiston and air turns into water.
Give it enough time and water turns into earth.

makes more sense in comparison because the candle goes out way sooner than it should if that was the only thing happening, and also the water rises a little higher than it should if only the ideal gas law is responsible for the water level

Yeah, have you ever tried covering a fire?
>pressure decreases that much
Once you remove an open flame, the temperature tends to drop sharply in its immediate vicinity, yes.

It's obvious the candle warms the climate so much the small ocean starts to rise.

The "smoke" that you see are actually tiny bits of the wax, which would boil off if the flame was still burning. It's just like one of the early steam engines, except with the wax instead of water.

Here's a different video of the same thing.

And how do you determine how soon the candle "should" go out? Your personal feelings?

just think about how long a large fire burns for
if that explanation were correct and the oxygen were really used up that fast every bonfire would cause severe natural disasters and mass suffocation by the sheer amount of oxygen that would burn...
clearly, the system wants to reach some kind of equal distribution of pressure and, the decreased pressure caused by the burning makes it harder for currents or general circulations in order to reach such an equilibrium, which exponentially gets worse as more and more carbon reactants shield the candle from more oxygen coming in, leading to the dimming of the candle in the manner observed...
that is why it goes out sooner than it should if only the ideal gas laws are accounted for, because the distribution of carbon reactants build up around the candle and cannot disperse
also this shows there is something wrong with the general kinetic theory of gases as if that theory were correct the gases should distribute faster to reach homogeneity rather than building up since there are less molecules or moles in the vessel to impede the spreading or distribution of the carbon reactants

genuinely nothing wrong with using intuition to hypothesize
hypotheses and intuition are needed insofar as where mathematics and direct observation are not yet applicable

What do you mean not applicable? What is it that you can't measure in a highschool laboratory? hell, you could go stick a glass over a small candle and time how long it takes to go out immediately.

>the decreased pressure caused by the burning
Burning INCREASES pressure through temperature, and less significantly by converting hard or liquid matter to smoke/vapor. The decreased pressure occurs when the flame goes out, which is what causes it to draw in water like a syringe.
>more and more carbon reactants shield the [flame] from more oxygen coming in
that's why most fires actually go out before consuming 100% of the fuel material unless vigorously ventilated, yes.
>if only the ideal gas laws are accounted for
>this shows there is something wrong with the general kinetic theory of gases
You're a dimwit. By the way, that video clearly has a lapse between showing when the flame is covered and when it goes out.

When you assume your intuition must be correct even when it contradicts established facts, your intuition has turned into narcissistic dogma - in other words, it's worthless.
Seriously, imagine saying this
>also this shows there is something wrong with the general kinetic theory of gases
Based on the observed behavior not matching your personal expectations.
The kinetic theory of gasses is well established, well observed, and fits with the behavior that we see in reality. Just because YOU think it's wrong does not mean it is.
