Bunsen burner parts?

A normal Bunsen burner has a chimney which contains gas, a collar to adjust the air hole, a air hole that will leak gas, a gas tap that provides gas to the burner and the rubber tubing leads gas to the burner.


What is the functions of all the parts in a Bunsen burner?

Funtions of the Bunsen burner: air-hole: to control the amount of air let into the Bunsen burner for combustion. barrel: To allow the flame to beat a suitable height for burning. base: To support the Bunsen burner so that it will not fall over. collar: helps to adjust the gas being produced gas tap: to store gas. jet: To allow gas to enter the Bunsen Burner ( by helpingppl) Flame: the one part you don't want to forget


How do you correct a yellow flame on a Bunsen burner?

The flame of a Bunsen burner can potentially reach up to 1100-1200 degrees Celsius. On the bottom of the burner there is a ring which open and closes the way of oxygen from air to the gas. When the ring is open the oxygen flows to the gas and the flame becomes blue ( this is hotter flame :) if you close the ring the burning will be without oxygen and the flame will by yellow-red ( this one is cooler ). So the temp. of the Bunsen burner depends on the ring. If i remember correcty the tip of the blue flame is the hottest ( i think but not sure 1600 degrees Celsius).


When you rotate the collar of the Bunsen burner what is the effect of that to the air holes?

depends on the direction you turn the collar. You may cause the air holes to enlarge and let more air into the barrel of the burner. Or you could be making the holes smaller and actually cut off the air supply making the burner less effective, burning at a lower temp because of the lack of oxygen.

Parts of a Bunsen burner adjusted?

There are two adjustable parts on the Bunsen burner, the knob to control gas flow and the rotation of the collar to control air flow. The gas flow control, adjusts the size of the flame by controlling how much gas is burned. While the collar controls the intensity of the flame by controlling how completely the gas burns, more complete combustion the hotter the flame. These are the two parts to adjust a Bunsen burner, I hope I have answered your question.
