I am not 100% sure what you are asking here however I will do my best to answer it.

The gas that is used in most bunsen burners is methane (natural gas).

This is not true for all labs as I have heard of labs using town gas (which is made from distillation of coal).

A regular flame on a bunsen is orange this the coolest flame (300°C) and is rarely used. more common will be the blue flame which closer to 700°C. When leaving the bunsen for any length of time the orange flame should be left on as it is easy to observe and insures the safety of your fellow class mates.
