Why the dominant color of a nonluminous flame on a Bunsen burner blue?
The dominant color of a nonluminous flame on a Bunsen burner is blue. Whereas, the dominant color of a luminous flame on a Bunsen burner is orange.
Can you get nerve damge from a Bunsen burner burns?
Nothing is impossible but I have not heard of it; probable a consequence of a very severe burn.
What is an gauze mat used for?
A gauze mat is used below bunsen burners as it protects the tripod or surface which the bunsen burner might be on. It is most likely to be made of thick metal threads threaded into a mat or square. It is best if it is not touched during an experiment including a bunsen burner as it probably will result in mild to severe burns.
What are Bunsen burners used for in chemistry?
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 liquefied petroleum gas such as propane, butane, or a mixture of both.
What are the energy changes in a Bunsen burner?
the fuel inside it as it burns it creates soot and then the flame has started :) hope that helps
What is the gas called that Bunsen burner burns?
oxident
What laboratory apparatus that burns clean?
A Bunsen burner.
What gasses come from a Bunsen burner?
The Bunsen burner uses natural gas to burn. Methane, CH4. Below is the equation of Bunsen burner combustion. CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O Methane burns combined with oxygen gas ( with ignition from a flame ) from the air and carbon dioxide and water are the products of this Bunsen burner reaction.
What is a meeker burner?
A meeker burner is like a Bunsen burner in the fact that it uses propane as a fuel source, but there are many differences. A meeker burner burns hotter then a Bunsen burner and it also has a grid over the flame that causes the flame and heat to vibrate as the propane burns.
Why the dominant color of a nonluminous flame on a Bunsen burner blue?
The dominant color of a nonluminous flame on a Bunsen burner is blue. Whereas, the dominant color of a luminous flame on a Bunsen burner is orange.
Can you get nerve damge from a Bunsen burner burns?

Why should a lit Bunsen burner never be left unattended?
It is dangerous as other people may just place their hand or other objects over the Bunsen burner causing injuries or burns, especially if it is a non-luminous flame which makes it difficult to tell that the burner is actually lit. You should always switch off the Bunsen burner before leaving to prevent injuries to others and yourself.

How does a Bunsen burner sterilize the area around it?
A Bunsen burner simply burns everything around it. It oxidises any impurities in the surrounding area, removing particulates such as carbon and changing them into carbon dioxide, these gasses then dissapate away from the area, sterilising the area.
What sort of burns could youe get from a Bunsen burner?
The same sort of burns you would get from anything else, depending on the heat of the flame and the duration of exposure. A Bunsen burner is not anything special. It is just designed to burn methane cleanly and efficiently in the presence of oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water vapor as the only by-products.
Why should you use the yellow flame when the Bunsen burner is unattended?
Safety. The yellow flame is easier to see and burns much less hot.
A Bunsen burner burns with the hottest flame when its hole is fully open because this allows plenty of gas from the air to reach the flame What is this gas?
Oxygen
