Yes it is. Because it gets more oxygen do therefore its hotter. It burns the air up and becomes blue.
No, a blue flame of a Bunsen burner is hotter than a yellow flame. The blue flame indicates complete combustion of the gas, which produces a higher temperature compared to the yellow flame's incomplete combustion.
A blue flame is hotter than a yellow flame because a blue flame has more oxygen, so it has more energy to create extra heat. Therefore, a blue flame is more dangerous and a yellow flame is used in laboratories. The hottest part of the blue flame is right under the middle, this part is called the crown !!
Yes, typically a red flame is hotter than a yellow flame. The color of a flame is determined by the temperature of the burning material. In general, hotter flames appear bluer or white, while cooler flames tend to appear yellow or red.
The two types of flames a Bunsen burner can produce are a luminous, yellow flame and a "roaring" blue flame. The blue flame is much hotter than the yellow flame.
You can't it is always the same. You only use the blue flame to heat things because the yellow flame is the safety flame and the blue flame is hotter.
take a pencil, a sheet of paper and 1digital themonator and write down the temp of the yellow flame then reset it and take the temp of the blue flame and write down the temp of it then see which one is hotter.
The two kinds of flames produced by a Bunsen burner are the luminous flame (yellow flame) and the non-luminous flame (blue flame). The luminous flame is cooler and produces soot, while the non-luminous flame is hotter and ideal for heating and sterilizing.
The two main types of flames are blue flames and yellow flames. Blue flames indicate clean, efficient combustion with sufficient oxygen, while yellow flames indicate incomplete combustion with impurities present.
yes, they are. here are the flame colors in order from hottest to coolest. white - hottest blue - hotter yellow - hot orange - cooler than yellow red - cooler than all of above
A blue flame is hotter than a yellow flame. First, "...the blue flame..." IS NOT more dangerous than "...the yellow flame." The yellow flame is more dangerous because it is an indicator of IMCOMPLETE COMBUSTION resulting from burning with a shortage of air, and thus not enough oxygen. The reason this is dangerous, actually DEADLY, is that when combustion [burning] occurs in an oxygen deficient atmosphere, one of the major byproducts of that combustion process is CARBON MONOXIDE, a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas which is toxic and therefore deadly to any creature that breathes air.
Assuming we're not throwing ions into the flame and the color is due strictly to temperature, the blue flame is hotter.The problem is that flames can be different colors for reasons other than temperature. Specifically, they may contain ionized materials with strong emission lines that color the flame. Probably the easiest example to observe using ordinary household materials is sodium which gives an orangish yellow color (easily seen by dropping a few crystals of table salt into the flame of a gas stove).The reason that hotter flames are blue is that blue light is more energetic than red light. A hotter flame has more energy, and therefore generates more energetic light.
It is better to use a blue flame on a Bunsen burner because it indicates complete combustion of the gas, resulting in a hotter and more efficient flame for heating or sterilizing purposes. A blue flame also produces less soot and smoke compared to a yellow or orange flame.
