Why do we use roaring flame on a Bunsen burner?
It sounds cool
What are the two types of the gas burner flame?
Most commonly in schools, one will encounter Bunsen and micro burners.
Which safety precaution is recommended when a liquid is being heated in a test tube?
Wear goggles and a laboratory apron Hold the test tube with a test tube clamp not in your bare hand. If the liquid is nonflammable it may be heated in the flame of a Bunsen burner, otherwise a hot water bath over a hot plate may be more advisable. If heating in the flame of a Bunsen burner hold the test tube at an angle and move the tube in and out of the cool area of the flame. Alway point the opening of the test tube AWAY from yourself and others.
How does one obtain a cool flame with the laboratory burner?
Adjust the rotating air-inlet sleeve at the bottom on the spout.
How can a Bunsen burner burn the copper metal?
Heloo Im Cool. Oh Yeaah Babeey, i love you forever + a day :D Heloo Im Cool. Oh Yeaah Babeey, i love you forever + a day :D

What is the function of the collar of a Bunsen burner?
The collar regulates the amount of air which mixes with the fuel gas before it is burned. If the hole in the collar is not lined up with the hole in the bunsen stem, the fuel does most of its mixing with air at the top of the burner. This makes burning inefficient and the flame is cool. When the two holes line up, air is pre-mixed with the fuel, burning is much more efficient and the flame is as hot as possible.the collar of a bunsen burner is the part which doesnt get hot and you can twist it to close or open the air hole.Turning the collar opens and closes the air-hole which allows a controlled amount of oxygen to mix with the gas. The amount of air mixed in determines the colour and heat of the flame.The collar controls the amount of air and thus oxygen that can reach the methane gas inside the burner. With the hole closed there is no additional oxygen to mix with the methane and so we have a yellow flame. Opening the hole allows oxygen to mix with the methane so it burns at a higher temperature and with a blue flame.The collar on the Bunsen burner is to allocate as much oxygen as desired from the atmosphere into the Bunsen burner. The more oxygen in the Bunsen burner, the bluer or clearer the flame is. It is much hotter when in the blue flame.

How do you light Bunsen burner?
The first step in lighting a Bunsen burner is to check for safety. Next you make sure the holes are closed, light the match, turn on the gas tap, and put the match to the top of the burner. Once lit, you adjust the flame.
Why does the airhole have to be closed when lighting a Bunsen burner?
Because if the air hole was wide open, the flame will be blue, which is going to be really hot so you have to leave it at a safety yellow flame which is when the air hole is closed when lit. It could be dangerous to leave a Bunsen burner on a blue flame. this is confusing, explain more clearly, geez is dat too much to ask?
Why is a strike back dangerous?
The bunsen burner is very hot and you may burn yourself. Wait for it to cool down and then light it again

What is a Bunsen burner and what is it's uses?
From Wikipedia (see Link to the left):A Bunsen burner is a device used in scientific laboratories for heating, sterilization, and many other uses.The device safely burns a continuous stream of a flammable gas such as natural gas (which is principally methane) or a liquified petroleum gas such as propane, butane, or a mixture of both.From ScienceByJones.com (see Link to the left):The Bunsen burner is used frequently in the laboratory as a source of heat. This burner is designed so that gaseous fuel may be mixed with the correct amount of air to yield the maximum amount of heat. In order to use this burner properly and safely, it is essential that you understand its construction and the adjustments that can be made.The three principal parts of the burner are: barrel, needle valve, and base. The quantity of gas admitted to the burner is controlled by the needle valve, while the air needed for combustion is admitted at the small opening around the bottom of the barrel. The air is controlled by turning the barrel so as to make the air holes larger or smaller.Always open the desk outlet valve fully and regulate the gas supply to the burner by the needle valve. Always extinguish your burner by turning off the desk outlet valve (and then closing the needle valve and barrel.) If there is an accident always shut off the desk outlet valve immediately.STEPS TO LIGHT BUNSEN BURNER:1. Check connections to burner and desk outlet valve.2. Close needle valve and barrel.3. Open desk outlet valve fully.4. Check for leaks with flame.5. While holding flame above barrel, open needle valve 1/2 turn.6. Adjust barrel and needle valve for blue in blue flame.Always light burner in open space on lab counter. After you have adjusted it for the flame needed move it into position. One person in lab group is always responsible for maintaining the burner and flame.Burner Procedure:1. Light the burner according to our rules. Observe the yellow flame which is produced because not enough air is admitted to give complete combustion. The yellow color is caused by small particles of unburned carbon which become incandescent.2. Now rotate the barrel until the flame is entirely blue. Two different zones should appear when the burner is correctly adjusted. Too much air should not be admitted as it may cool the flame or blow it out entirely. After having the teacher confirm a good hot, blue flame draw a diagram of the flame (use labels and descriptions). Indicate on your diagram of the flame where the hottest part of the flame is located.See the Web Links to the left for more information.Bunsen burner barrels can be rotated, either opening or closing the barrel, to adjust the flow of air or oxygen, thereby controlling the flame.

What does sand do when it is heated on a Bunsen burner?
Due to the properties of sand, when we heat it over Bunsen burner it can be used as heating buffer. The sand would absorb heat even after it is removed so we can use it similarly to a hot water bath but the sand will eventually cool down and need reheating. It is common to use this sand heat bed technique in organic laboratories or when gentle/slow heating is required.
