Can you measure the temperature of a flame of a Bunsen burner using a thermometer?

Yes, and No.
You will get an inaccurate number since of air temperature and a few variables, but it will be relatively close.
I do not recommend this, because a few things may happen, and even some I do not even know of. The thermometer will get hot and melt. Or explode. And many other things can happen.

What is the temperature of the Bunsen burner regulated by?
The temperature of a Bunsen burner is regulated by gas and airflow. The gas is controlled by a flow valve and the air is controlled by a screw mechanism on the collar. Different type of nozzles can control the flame's shape. The Bunsen burner was invented in 1855 by Robert Wilhelm Bunsen (1811-1899).
Who was the Bunsen burner named after?
The Bunsen burner was named after one of its inventors, Robert Bunsen.
What is the thing for heating objects in science?

Who discovered the Bunsen burner?
Bunsen.
Where does Bunsen burner's energy come from?
A Bunsen burner is a flame that makes a devise that combines flammable gas with air, named after Robert Bunsen, the German chemist who invented an improved Bunsen burner in 1855. A Bunsen burner is used in laboratories.
How do you heat a liquid to 90 degrees?
if your in a lab, put water in a beaker, place the beaker on a tripod and heat with Bunsen burner, (use thermometer to measure

The blue flame of a Bunsen burner has a temperature between 500 0C and 700 0C.
What is the use of tirril burner?
It is similar to Bunsen burner. It is used for high temperature burning.

Why is a Bunsen burner better than using a candle or a fire?
Bunsen burners are preferred over candles or fires because the Bunsen burner produces a much higher temperature (noted by the blue flame) and it is much easier to contain/control a Bunsen Burner flame.
What is a Bunsen burner and what is its function?
The bunsen burner is used to heat items for experiments using a controllable temperature flame and surface area at which the heat is applied to the vessel.
Did Bunsen create the Bunsen burner?
Robert Bunsen invented the Bunsen burner if that is what you mean?
Why can you not use a Bunsen burner to heat a flammable liquid?
It is too volatile to heat up with a bunsen burner as it could overheat because you can not regulate the heat that the bunsen burner is set to, whereas with apparatus such as a thermostatic water bath you can set it to a specific temperature.
When did Robert Bunsen invent the Bunsen burner?
Robert Bunsen invented the Bunsen Burner in 1867.
Why is a Bunsen burner called a Bunsen burner?
because Robert Bunsen made it :)
Why did Robert Bunsen improve the Bunsen burner?
He was a pioneer in Photo Chemistry and also in Organoarsenic chemistry
Different kinds of burner?
Three types of laboratory burners are the Tirrill Burner, Bunsen Burner, and the Meker Burner. The Tirrill and Meker Burner have air and gas adjustments while the Bunsen Burner has only an air adjustment. Hope that helps.
