Kathy Townsend · Answer 1

The two types of energy changes that occur are heat and light changes.

Jacoby Acosta · Answer 2

This would be chemical energy that is converted to heat. The heat from the wick melts the wax which gets absorbed in the wick and then gets burnt (which is really oxidation) to produce heat energy as well as light energy.
