When you close the air holes, there will not be enough oxygen entering the burner to react with all the gas. As a result the methane cannot burn completely and carbon (soot) remains unburned.

What is observed with the heated test tubes using a burner with closed air holes?
When using a burner with closed air holes to heat test tubes, the flame will be yellow and sooty due to incomplete combustion. This is because the lack of oxygen hinders the complete conversion of the fuel to carbon dioxide and water. Additionally, the test tubes may become dirty from the soot deposits.
What flame produce more soot and smoke?
A yellow, smoky flame with a flickering appearance typically produces more soot and smoke compared to a clean, blue flame. This is due to incomplete combustion, which occurs when there isn't enough oxygen present to fully burn the fuel. It's important to ensure proper ventilation and adjust the air-to-fuel ratio to minimize the production of soot and smoke.
What is the color of the flame with the air vent closed?
If the air vent is closed, there may not be enough oxygen for complete combustion, resulting in a yellow or orange flame due to the presence of unburned carbon particles. It is inefficient and can produce more soot and carbon monoxide.
Why is it that when the air hole is closed the flame becomes yellow?
When the air hole is closed, the ratio of fuel to oxygen is unbalanced. This leads to incomplete combustion and the production of soot, which appears yellow. In contrast, a blue flame is a sign of complete combustion when the fuel and oxygen are properly balanced.
What is the black substancecreatedmade by a yellow Bunsen burner flame?
The black substance created by a yellow Bunsen burner flame is typically soot, which is carbon particles that have not fully combusted in the flame. The yellow color of the flame indicates incomplete combustion, leading to the production of soot as a byproduct.
Why soot's is present in the flame if the air holes is closed?
Soot is present in the flame because when the air holes are closed, there is not enough oxygen for the fuel to burn completely. This incomplete combustion leads to the formation of carbon particles, which then combine to form soot.
How the flame produced when the air holes were closed. if the the flame was luminous what made it so?
When air holes are closed, oxygen supply decreases, leading to incomplete combustion and the production of soot particles. These soot particles can get heated up to incandescence and emit visible light, creating a luminous flame. The presence of carbon in the soot is what causes the flame to appear luminous.
Why is a luminous flame formed when the air hole is closed?
The luminous flame is present when the air valve is closed because of an incomplete combustion process and the burning of trapped carbon (soot).
When do you get yellow soot in the burner flame?
Yellow soot is obtained when the holes of the burner are not clean. The combustion is incomplete. The yellow soot or yellow flame is because of unburnt carbon particles.
In luminous flame the flame is produce when the air hole is open or close?
A bunsen burner (as used in a science lab or science classroom) will burn quietly, and a flickery yellow (like a wax candle) if the air hole is closed, or closed too much. If the air holes is opened, the flame will turn bluish and become noisy and hotter as more air mixes with the gas.
What is observed with the heated test tubes using a burner with closed air holes?
When using a burner with closed air holes to heat test tubes, the flame will be yellow and sooty due to incomplete combustion. This is because the lack of oxygen hinders the complete conversion of the fuel to carbon dioxide and water. Additionally, the test tubes may become dirty from the soot deposits.
Why does a yellow flame appear on the Bunsen burner when the air hole is closed?
In a laboratory under normal conditions and with a closed oxygen valve, a Bunsen burner burns with yellow flame (also called a safety flame). This is due to the burning of very fine soot particles that are produced in the flame. With increasing oxygen supply, less black body-radiating soot is produced due to a more complete combustion and the reaction creates enough energy to producing a blue appearance flame.
What flame produce more soot and smoke?
A yellow, smoky flame with a flickering appearance typically produces more soot and smoke compared to a clean, blue flame. This is due to incomplete combustion, which occurs when there isn't enough oxygen present to fully burn the fuel. It's important to ensure proper ventilation and adjust the air-to-fuel ratio to minimize the production of soot and smoke.

Why is a yellow flame an example of complete combustion?
A yellow flame indicates the presence of soot or unburned carbon particles in the flame. In complete combustion, there should be enough oxygen present to fully burn all the fuel, resulting in a clean blue flame with no soot or carbon particles. A yellow flame is typically associated with incomplete combustion, where not all the fuel is burned efficiently.
What color is the flame of cyclohexane?
CYCLOHEXANE - orange and blue flame with no soot....
