Twist the collar at the bottom of the Bunsen burner to allow more oxygen to mix with the methane. This will produce a blue flame that is very hot and may be difficult to see, so be careful.

How do i control the height of the burner flame?

You can make the flame hotter by first, lowering the flame from the starting point by slowly closing the gas valve until the flame is at a medium height. Then, you should increase the oxygen intake by slowly opening the oxygen valve until you have a completely non-luminous flame (an all-blue flame), which is hotter than an orange or yellow flame.

How do control the temperature for a Bunsen burner?

Adjust the air intake and gas flow to control the temperature of a Bunsen burner. Increasing air intake will result in a hotter flame, while reducing it will make the flame cooler. Similarly, adjusting the gas flow will also affect the temperature of the flame.


What do you do to a Bunsen burner to create a safety flame?

To create a safety flame on a Bunsen burner, adjust the air hole to allow more air to mix with the gas. This will produce a hotter, lighter blue flame rather than a yellow, sooty flame. Adjust the gas flow until the flame burns steadily without flickering or making noise.


What is the characteristics of a safety flame I have really hard homework and it say draw a safety flame and label the characteristics of this flame i have no idea what characteristics are?

I'm only in Yr 7 and i know,anyways the characteristics are what it contains a safety flame is when the flem is on and orangey colour and is not as hot as the blue flame.For example you are using a Bunsen burner (you gotta have used a Bunsen burner at least once at scholl cause i have,any ways the blue flame is always hotter than the orangey flame (the safety flame) because to make a blue flame you need to open the Bunsen burner jacket to let oxygen pass through.Sp the characteristics are that the safety flem is an orangey cour as oppsed o the blue flame,which is also much hotter than the safety flame.
