Candle Snuffer

The Candle Snuffer is a captivating classroom demonstration that brings chemistry to life with a dramatic visual effect. Using a simple reaction to generate carbon dioxide gas, the dense CO₂ is “poured” down the flume to mysteriously extinguish candles one by one — creating a memorable moment that instantly engages students while demonstrating key scientific principles in action.

Perfect for science teachers and outreach demonstrations, the Candle Snuffer helps explore chemical reactions, gas density, combustion, and endothermic processes in a safe, repeatable, and highly interactive way. Easy to set up and reusable time after time, it’s an ideal addition to any chemistry classroom looking to combine theatre with learning.

Key features:

• Dramatic hands-on demonstration of carbon dioxide properties
• Clearly illustrates combustion and oxygen displacement
• Demonstrates an endothermic chemical reaction
• Reusable apparatus for repeated classroom use
• Ideal for chemistry lessons, STEM events, and science shows
