With your Bunsen burner, you should use the blue flame (hole open) for heating and control the flame using the gas tap if it's too high. The yellow flame (hole closed) is used if you are leaving your Bunsen briefly, as it shows up more easily and reduces the risk of someone burning themselves on it.

The non-luminous flame is recommended and appropriate for heating. It produces a hot and steady flame with no or little soot.

What is considered an open fire?

An "open flame" refers to flame, usually used as a heating source, that is directly exposed to the outside elements, or often the object to be heated. Examples would include a Bunsen burner, a bonfire, or in some cases grills. The opposite would include heating elements that do not directly openly expose the flame, such as old stoves or heating elements.


What would you use a roaring Bunsen burner flame for?

Most things in chemistry.. Usually you would use a blue Bunsen flame (half open at the bottom) for heating almost everything. The yellow flame is only a safety flame, as you can't see a blue one all that well, and it's not used for heating because it produces soot
