Yes,it can .But it might take longer time to heat
The "air-hole" of a bunsen burner allows some of the flame to escape so that the heating flame does not become too hot. A flame that is too hot can damage laboratory equipment. When the air hole is closed it is a yellow sooty flame like the fires we have at home.
When the air hole is closed, the flame is a luminous flame. This flame is not ideal for heating for the following reasons: it is not as hot as the non-luminous flame it is very unstable it produces a lot of soot thus, only non-luminous flames (the blue one) is ideal for heating. :)
The silent flame on the Bunsen burner is the yellow/orange flame.
It is a luminous yellow flame. 🔥
When the air hole on a Bunsen burner is closed, air is excluded, so the flame becomes a yellowish candle-like flame.

The yellow flame because that is the safety flame
The blue flame of the Bunsen burner is when it is hottest. The yellow flame is the safety flame. you should always start the burner on the safety flame which is produced when the holes on its base are closed.
you would use the safety flame when not heating anything because the blue flame is for heating because its hotter than yellow.
when you light up the burner you should see that the Bunsen burners air hole is closed that is the safest flame
It is closed to make a safety flame.
we cn usE bunSen burner ..... so that we coUld leaRn it?!
