Why must you never blow your Bunsen out like you would blow out a candle?

Blowing out a Bunsen burner like a candle can be dangerous because Bunsen burners use gas as fuel, which can continue to flow after the flame is extinguished. If you blow out a Bunsen burner, the gas may still be present and could ignite, causing a fire or explosion. It is safer to turn off the gas supply at the source or use the built-in flame adjuster to extinguish the flame on a Bunsen burner.

What causes the luminescence in the cooler yellow flame on Bunsen burner?

The luminescence in a cooler yellow flame on a Bunsen burner is due to incomplete combustion of the gas. This yellow flame indicates that not all of the fuel is burning completely, leading to the emission of soot particles that glow and produce the yellow color. The presence of soot in the flame absorbs and re-emits light, resulting in the yellowish glow.
