hydrocarbons, in general.
A sooty flame is yellow and produces soot or carbon due to incomplete combustion of fuel. A non-sooty flame is blue and indicates complete combustion, where fuel is completely burnt. The presence of soot in a flame is caused by insufficient oxygen supply or improper fuel-air mixture in the combustion process.
To change the type of Bunsen burner flame, adjust the air hole at the base of the burner. Closing the air hole will produce a yellow, sooty flame (reducing flame) while opening it will create a blue, non-sooty flame (oxidizing flame).
For the same reason anything else burns with a sooty flame--not enough oxygen. What happens is, the outside of the flame gets all the air it wants, and the little oxygen that makes it through isn't enough to properly combust the fuel. If you mix air with the fuel before you burn it, as is done in a carburetor or a welding torch, you don't get a sooty flame.
Benzene burns with a sooty flame due to its incomplete combustion, which results in the formation of carbon particles (soot). Hexane, on the other hand, is a saturated hydrocarbon and tends to undergo complete combustion, resulting in a cleaner flame with less soot formation.
Chloroform produces a sooty flame when burned due to incomplete combustion. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is insufficient oxygen present during the burning process. The carbon atoms in chloroform combine with oxygen to form carbon dioxide, but if there is not enough oxygen available, carbon particles are released instead, creating the sooty flame.

The Ignition test is a test for aromaticity. One takes a sample of their unknown, places it in an open flame and observes what happens. The presence of an aromatic ring will usually lead to the production of a sooty yellow flame in the test.
A sooty flame in Hindi is called "काला धुआंदार ज्वाला" (kala dhuanadar jwala).
A sooty flame is yellow and produces soot or carbon due to incomplete combustion of fuel. A non-sooty flame is blue and indicates complete combustion, where fuel is completely burnt. The presence of soot in a flame is caused by insufficient oxygen supply or improper fuel-air mixture in the combustion process.
A sooty flame is typically considered a non-luminous flame because it does not produce significant visible light. It appears dark or dim due to the presence of unburned carbon particles (soot) in the flame.
To change the type of Bunsen burner flame, adjust the air hole at the base of the burner. Closing the air hole will produce a yellow, sooty flame (reducing flame) while opening it will create a blue, non-sooty flame (oxidizing flame).

When a hydrocarbon is burnt in the presenceof oxygen it gives heat, light, and carbon dioxide gas producing a sooty or non-sooty flame
Chloroform produces a sooty flame when burned due to incomplete combustion. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is insufficient oxygen present during the burning process. The carbon atoms in chloroform combine with oxygen to form carbon dioxide, but if there is not enough oxygen available, carbon particles are released instead, creating the sooty flame.
A non-sooty flame is a type of flame that burns cleanly without producing soot, which is a byproduct of incomplete combustion. This occurs when there is an adequate supply of oxygen, allowing the fuel to burn completely. Non-sooty flames are typically seen in well-ventilated burners or when using fuels like natural gas or propane. These flames are often characterized by a blue color, indicating efficient combustion.
