How does a yellow flame on a Bunsen burner make things black but the roaring flame doesn't?
The flame of a Bunsen burner that is yellow in color will leave a black carbon residue due to the incorrect mixture of oxygen into the flame. Because there is not enough oxygen for complete combustion, the carbon reside is left behind.
When the Bunsen flame has a sufficient amount of oxygen mixed in, hence the 'roaring flame', it has a blue color and does not leave a carbon residue due to complete combustion of the acetylene gas.

It is called the safety flame, The medium flame, also called the blue flame or the invisible flame is difficult to see in a well-lit room. It is the most commonly used flame. It is approximately 500°C, The hottest flame is called the roaring blue flame. It is characterized by a light blue triangle in the middle and it is the only flame of the 3 which makes a noise.

What is the function of the Gas inlet of the Bunsen burner?
Well, honey, the gas inlet of a Bunsen burner is where you hook up your gas supply, so you can light that bad boy up and start heating things. It's like the fuel pump for your fiery little friend, making sure it has all the gas it needs to keep burning bright. So, if you want to turn up the heat, you better make sure that gas inlet is doing its job.
