Air hole open=steadyAir hole closed= not steady.Why?Lack of oxygen makes the flame unsteady when the hole is closed as oxygen is used for burning.
It is easiest to light it fuel rich - that is the vent hole closed
This is the roaring flame. It is characterised by a light blue triangle in the middle and it is the only flame of the 3 which makes a noise. It is approximately 700°C.
The air inlet valve must be open.
yes it makes a loud noise
Yes but how many noise
open
Closed
Ch4 + 5o2 ------> co2 + 2h2o +302
When the air valve in closed a yellow luminous flame is observed due to carbon particles from in incomplete combustion.
Robert Bunsen added an air hole to it so it could have oxygen as well as gas. when the air hole is open the flame you get is blue and is hotter than when the air hole is closed, which then gives a yellow flame.
To change the flame of a Bunsen burner you must open or close the air valve, usually this is done by rotating the barrel.
See the figure at thge link below.
Yes, it does, but fully
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.
It is a luminous yellow flame. 🔥
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.

The two colours are yellow - when the air-hole is open, and blue - when the air-hole is closed.
When the hole of a Bunsen burner is half closed (or half open) the flame is mostly blue-violet in color throughout, with no orange/yellow apparent as it would be with the hole fully closed. When the hole is fully open, the flame divides into a pale voilet color outer part with a cone of intense blue color within.
it's to prevent a strike-back
Yes,it can .But it might take longer time to heat
It is less hot
The function that covers the air hole in a Bunsen burner is the collar.
