A roaring flame indicates that the air inlet is open too far and should be closed slightly.
A Bunsen burner flame with the air hole half open is typically called a "luminous flame." It appears yellow and produces soot due to incomplete combustion, indicating a fuel-rich environment. Adjusting the air hole allows for better control of the flame temperature and combustion efficiency.
When the air hole is opened completely then the flame would turn blue indicating it is very hot. If you closed it the flame will be yellow indicating that it is not as hot (also called the safety flame). So if you half opened the hole then the flame would be hot but not as hot as the blue flame, due to the air flow mixing with the gas inside.
The is an 'Air hole' at the bottom of the burner. This air hole has a slip collar , which can be twisted/turned/rotated in order to control the air flow. When the collar is turned such that the air hole is closed, then you have a 'slack' yellow flame. When the air hole is fully open , you have a 'roaring' pale blue flame. The temparture is controlled by the air hole too!!! . With the yellow flame is at its coolest, and with pale blue flame is at its hottest. However, you need a special heat resistant thermometer to insert in to the flame to read the actual temperature.
Yes, when the air hole of a Bunsen burner is closed, it can produce a roaring or buzzing sound due to incomplete combustion of the gas. This can result in a build-up of unburned gas that ignites intermittently, creating noise.
Because more air is able to fuel the flame's reaction; the collar at the bottom of the tube is adjusted so more air can mix with the gas before combustion, the flame will burn hotter.
Air hole fully open gives a 'roaring blue flame'
To get a roaring (blue) flame you simply turn the sleeve on the Bunsen burner's chimney to completely open the air hole under it. The new blue flame will be hard to see so close the air hole afterwards to make a visible flame.
No, the flame will not be steady if the air hole of the Bunsen burner is half opened. Adjusting the air hole affects the air-to-fuel ratio needed for combustion. A half-open air hole may result in an incomplete combustion, leading to an unstable or flickering flame. Adjust the air hole until a steady blue flame is achieved.
An open flame above an air hole on a Bunsen burner is called a roaring flame. It occurs when the air hole is fully open and allows for more oxygen to mix with the gas, creating a hotter and louder flame. Adjusting the air hole can help control the flame temperature and intensity.
When the air hole of a flame is opened, more oxygen is introduced to the combustion process, resulting in increased fuel burn rate and heat output. This typically leads to a hotter flame temperature due to the enhanced oxygen supply supporting more vigorous combustion.
To change from a safety flame to a roaring flame on a gas stove, increase the gas flow by turning the knob clockwise to allow more gas to feed into the burner. Then, use a long match or a gas lighter to ignite the gas. Adjust the knob to regulate the flame size to achieve the desired roaring flame.
When the air hole of a Bunsen burner is half open, the sound produced is usually a low-pitched roaring noise, indicating that the flame is receiving the right amount of air for combustion. It should be a steady sound, with a stable flame. Adjusting the air hole helps control the intensity of the flame.

Open the air hole at the base of the Bunsen burner. Turn on the gas supply and ignite the burner with a striker or a match. Adjust the air hole to control the flame size and type (safety flame or roaring flame). When finished, turn off the gas supply and close the air hole to ensure safety.
Because you are letting air in, without air it's usually the flame will just burn out, but in a Bunsen burner's case the flame will just end up roaring, because there's plenty of air going around the room your in but not from the base of the flames, it's like it is rushing to get air.
