thanks for answering my previous question. Just doing my sons science hmwk!!! He is 13 today and just announced before bed it has to be in for tomorrow!! would normally go ballistic but it is his birthday!!
An intense white flame is produced when magnesium burns.
Oxygen is needed for burning. If there is no oxygen flame dies.
I cant
The flame is white and very luminous.
The oxygen necessary for burning is not sufficient.

violet or purple colour
Red brick; it is not a burning but a heating.
orange

Both the smoke and the color of the flame are due to the material burning. The color of the flame has no effect ON the smoke.

The most efficient flame that a Bunsen burner can produce should be pale light blue, and almost invisible. A yellow or luminous flame should be avoided as it isn't as hot as the blue flame and leaves sut.
If you open the valve on the bunsen burner fully the flame becomes virtually invisible and therefore there are no interactions between the original flame colour and the colour produced by the chemical.
burning of a substance depends upon the availability of oxygen to it. as the supply of oxygen to outermost part is greatest complete combustion takes and a blue colored flame is produced! hence outermost layer is hottest
