it is used because it supports combustion and it easily reacts with metals.
Oxyacetylene flames can reach temperatures up to 6,332°F (3,500°C) when burned with the optimal ratio of oxygen and acetylene.
Oxygen is used in welding to increase the burn rate of the fuel gas, such as acetylene, in the oxy-fuel welding process. The oxygen reacts with the fuel gas, creating a high-temperature flame that is used to melt and join metal together. Additionally, oxygen is used in oxy-fuel cutting to aid in the combustion process, resulting in a clean cut through metal.
Mixing Acetylene and Oxygen in the correct proportions produces an extremely hot flame. Using just enough Oxygen so that the Acetylene is almost completely consumed in the flame is called a Neutral Flame. In most welding and cutting applications you would utilize this flame. Reducing the amount of Oxygen produces a Carburizing Flame. It is yellowish and not as hot as a Neutral Flame, but, is used in certain situations. Welding Aluminum is one. Increasing the Oxygen produces an Oxidizing Flame. It produces a flame that is pointed, colder, and louder than a Neutral Flame. It wastes fuel and isn't as efficient as a Neutral Flame.
The chemical acetylene is used as a fuel some times, and a chemical building block. It is used in Oxyacetylene welding. It has other uses such as hardening steel, and it was once used to light up towns via street lights.
That depends on what is being burned. paper for instance, burns at 451 degrees farenheir wheras things like coal burn with hotter flames.
Green flames are typically not as hot as blue flames, but are hotter than red or orange flames.
Oxygen Acetylene torch will get to 5800-6300 degrees Fahrenheit easily.
Oxyacetylene flames can reach temperatures up to 6,332°F (3,500°C) when burned with the optimal ratio of oxygen and acetylene.
Non-luminous flames are flames that do not emit visible light. These flames occur when there is not enough oxygen available for complete combustion to take place. As a result, the flame appears mostly blue or invisible to the naked eye.
A green flame is typically not as hot as blue or white flames, but hotter than red or orange flames.

All flames are hot
the flames of a fire
House fires can burn at temperatures ranging from 1,100 to 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit. The intensity of the flames is influenced by factors such as the availability of oxygen, the type of fuel present, and the layout of the house.
