When water is boiled over a Bunsen burner, the heat from the flame causes the water molecules to gain energy and move faster. This increased kinetic energy causes the water to reach its boiling point, where it changes from a liquid to a gas (vapor). The bubbles you see are the water vapor escaping from the liquid as it boils.
When methane is burnt in a Bunsen burner, it undergoes combustion with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. This reaction releases heat and light, which is used to provide a hot, blue flame in the Bunsen burner for heating purposes.
For heating water with a Bunsen burner, you would use a blue flame. This is the hottest part of the Bunsen burner flame and provides the most efficient heat transfer to the water.

It typically takes around 2-3 minutes to boil 150ml of water on a Bunsen burner, depending on the intensity of the flame and the efficiency of the burner.
To heat water with a Bunsen burner, you would need a Bunsen burner, a heat-resistant container to hold the water such as a beaker or flask, a tripod or wire gauze to support the container over the flame, and a source of water to be heated. Optional equipment could include a thermometer to monitor the temperature of the water.

If you see blue it means that the flame is hotter. It will then (obviously) heat up whatever it is faster.

Splashing may occur.
Water.
The water will boil the soonest at the highest point because heat rises, so the heat from the Bunsen burner will be concentrated at that point.
The flame that comes out of the Bunsen burner. it's blue/pale violet.
No, when you boil a beaker of water over a Bunsen burner, the water will not turn into a gas. It will reach its boiling point (100°C at sea level) and turn into steam, which is the gaseous form of water.
To put out a Bunsen burner, simply close the air vent to cut off the oxygen supply first, then turn off the gas supply using the valve on the burner. Never use water to extinguish a Bunsen burner as this can spread the flame.
