Which metal you could boil in a Bunsen flame?
lead
Can you light a Bunsen burner with a burning piece of paper?
No, it is not safe to light a Bunsen burner with a burning piece of paper because it can lead to an uncontrolled flame and potential accidents. It is recommended to use a striker or a lighter specifically designed for lighting Bunsen burners to ensure proper control of the flame.
What is the spud on a Bunsen burner?
The spud on a Bunsen burner is a small metal fitting that controls the flow of gas. It is typically located at the base of the burner where the gas enters, and it can be adjusted to regulate the flame size and intensity. The spud helps to ensure a controlled and consistent flame for heating purposes.
How do the Bunsen burner looks like?
I prefer a number-two pencil and sheet of fine copier paper when drawing pictures of laboratory equipment. But the technique is pretty simple: you either get a Bunsen burner from the lab, or download a photo of one from the Internet, and sketch it.
What is a striker in laboratory equipment?
A striker is used to light a flame, for instance the Bunsen burner flame. The striker does this by using flint to strike a rugged surface. Flint is a form of quartz that emits a spark when struck, thus this is why it is called a striker.
Which metal you could boil in a Bunsen flame?
lead
How do you use a Bunsen burner to kindle the copper metal?
You open th Bunsen burner. Then you use a metal grabber to grab the copper metal and put it on top of the Bunsen burner's flame. Soon the cooper metal will be kindled.
Name a metal carbonate that dose not decompose in a Bunsen burner flame?
sodium carbonate
Name a metal carbonate that does not decompose when heated with a Bunsen burner flame?
Sodium Carbonate
Why does the blue flame on a Bunsen burner make metal things red when they are held in the flame for a long time?
The blue flame of a Bunsen burner is hotter than the yellow flame. When a metal object is held in the blue flame for a long time, it absorbs heat and emits light, resulting in the metal glowing red due to incandescence. This happens as the metal reaches a temperature at which it begins to emit visible light.
What holds a small solid in a Bunsen burner flame?
A metal wire or ceramic triangle called a "crucible" is typically used to hold a small solid in a Bunsen burner flame during heating. This allows for better heat transfer and prevents the solid from rolling out of the flame.
How does the bunsen burner sparker function to ignite the flame for laboratory experiments?
The Bunsen burner sparker creates a spark by striking a flint against a metal wheel, which ignites the gas coming out of the burner. This flame is used for heating and conducting experiments in the laboratory.
Can you light a Bunsen burner with a burning piece of paper?
No, it is not safe to light a Bunsen burner with a burning piece of paper because it can lead to an uncontrolled flame and potential accidents. It is recommended to use a striker or a lighter specifically designed for lighting Bunsen burners to ensure proper control of the flame.
What makes the yellow colour in a yellow Bunsen flame?
The yellow color in a Bunsen flame is usually due to the presence of soot particles that are glowing as they burn incomplete combustion. This can happen when there is insufficient oxygen mixing with the gas. It can also be a result of metal ions in the flame, such as sodium, which can emit yellow light when heated.
Is the Bunsen burner made of pyrex?
No, a Bunsen burner is typically made of metal, specifically brass or stainless steel. Pyrex is a type of borosilicate glass that is commonly used for laboratory glassware such as beakers and test tubes.
What is the metal sheet on top of a Bunsen burner?
as far as i know on top of the barrel is the flame. i think that's right
Why does the Bunsen flame burn above a metal gauze?
The metal gauze acts as a barrier that helps disperse the heat, allowing for more even and efficient combustion of the fuel gas. Additionally, the gauze helps to stabilize the flame and prevent flashback into the gas line.
