so when a complete combustion takes place the flame will always be BLUE...
Some gases burn with a blue cone in the flame. This is caused by 'Swan bands', i.e. light emitted by vibrating carbon-carbon bonds in the gas molecule. Thus if burning a gas such as pure methane or hydrogen which has no carbon-carbon bonds, the flame does not have a blue cone. The remainder of the flame emits blue light simply because it is very hot. Kerosine has numerous carbon-carbon bonds and so produces a lot of blue light when it burns.
