How is the amount of gas and oxygen controlled in a Bunsen burner?
the gas cannot be controlled however the oxygen can. Gas is passed through and the valve can be turned to allow more or less oxygen in, the more exposed the gas is to oxygen, the more intense the flame.
What gas do you need to start a Bunsen burner?
In order to combust you need heat, oxygen and fuel (like diesel in a car or in the case of a Bunsen burner a gas). Therefore Oxygen from the air burns with a gas such as Methane(the gas that can come out of both our and cows' bottom's - hence the stench!!)I hope that helps!
What are the parts of a Bunsen burner and their function?
collar for turning to close and open the air hole air hole for allowing oxygen to mix with the gas barrel for the gas to go up gas hose for allowing gas into the Bunsen burner
Why is air mixed with the gas in the barrel of the burner before the gas will burn?
Because oxygen is required for something to burn. The air mixture adds the oxygen to the gas and allows burning to take place.
Why is it important to make sure that there is plenty of air around a gas burner?
Having a lot of air around a gas burner is important because fire needs oxygen, which is in the air, in order to stay lit.
Why gas cylinder does not catch fire when the burner is on?
Because fire needs oxygen to burn and there is no oxygen inside the cylinder. It is almost impossible for the gas inside to catch fire.
How does a gas burner work?
it mixes gas and extra oxygen which makes fire
Description of Bunsen burner?
A tall cylindrical burner with a flame on top, an oxygen valve and a gas supply tube.

How does a cooker flame safety device work?
It stops the gas supply to the burner when there is no flame sensed by the thermocouple inside the burner.

What is the gas inside a inhaler called?
oxygen
Can you Light a Bunsen burner by turning the gas and oxygen on to full volume?
No. You can not light a Bunsen Burner by turning on gas and oxygen. It takes a spark. (Actually, it takes a certain temperature to get the reaction started. The spark simply brings the material extremely near the spark up to that temperature.)
Bunsen burner parts and function?
collar for turning to close and open the air hole air hole for allowing oxygen to mix with the gas barrel for the gas to go up gas hose for allowing gas into the Bunsen burner i hope i understood the question right?
