(1) 

Crystallization is the process of formation of solid crystals precipitating from a solution, melt or more rarely deposited directly from a gas. Crystallization is also a chemical solid-liquid separation technique, in which mass transfer of a solute from the liquid solution to a pure solid crystalline phase occurs.

Making steel, steel is an example of crystalline. 
Making hard tack candy, making fudge although sugar is considered noncrystalline, you are varying the phases of sugar to include one large sugar crystal to get hard tack and annealing the fudge to avoid the formation of sugar crystals.

 
(2) Wax of the candle is made of carbon and hydrogen which reacts with oxygen on burning and changes into carbon dioxide gas and water which escapes into the air. This is a chemical change. As a result, candle melts and reduces in size. This is a physical change. So, during the burning of a candle, both physical and chemical changes take place.
