When you are temporarily not heating anything, you should use a safety flame or a low flame. This type of flame is small and controlled, reducing the risk of accidents and conserving fuel. It provides enough visibility to work safely without the intensity of a higher flame.
This is not a very well worded question. What do you mean by why should it be used? I Bunsen burner is used for heating things, usually in a lab setting.
When you want to heat something!! well wen it is closed is when it is at its hottest, its a heating flame, open is for safety that's when it is at its coolest like a safety flame. what i rote when you want to heat something is rong at the top. that's for if it is closed
Blue or heating flame.
Both the flame heating the pan and the pan heating the water are examples of conduction. Convection is when the molecules of water heat other molecules of water.
To provide a flexible desktop flame source for heating.
The flame should be very pale blue (almost invisible) for heating strongly. This is achieved by opening the air hole fully.
The object should be placed at the tip of the inner blue cone of the bunsen burner flame. This is the hottest part of the flame and will provide the most efficient heating to the substance. Adjust the height of the object as needed to maintain the best heating.
Hold heating objects just above the blue inner cone of the Bunsen burner flame. This is the hottest part of the flame and will provide the most efficient heating. Be cautious not to hold the object directly in the tip of the inner cone, as it may cause overheating or combustion.

luminous
Non-luminous flame should be used for heating in the laboratory because the flame is steady and produce little or no soot.Non-luminous flame is very hot thus, it is recommendable to use for laboratory purposes.Luminous flame is unsteady while non-luminous flame is steady.Another reason of using non-luminous flame because the flame of non-luminous is blue, and not visible unlike the luminous flame which is yellow in colour and visible.
The yellow flame (or luminous flame) should not be used because 1. It is less hot that the blue flame (or non-luminous flame) 2. It produces soot, as compared to the blue flame which is the clean flame
you would use the safety flame when not heating anything because the blue flame is for heating because its hotter than yellow.
The clean flame for heating on a Bunsen burner is the blue flame. This flame has a well-defined inner cone and burns with complete combustion, producing a high temperature suitable for heating applications in the laboratory.
A non-luminous (blue) flame is ideal for heating solids as it provides a consistent and even heat distribution. A non-luminous flame is hotter than a luminous flame, making it more efficient for heating purposes. Additionally, it reduces the risk of leaving soot or unburned fuel residue on the solid material.
The blue inner flame should be used for strong heating on a Bunsen burner because it is the hottest part of the flame, reaching temperatures up to 1,300°C. This flame is ideal for tasks requiring intense heat, such as boiling liquids or conducting chemical reactions that need high temperatures.
because it isnt hot enough and will leave soot on the bottom of the thing you are heating
