It produces more heat. It does not produce soot that would stain the laboratory apparatus.

Luminous flames are frequently used in chemical laboratories, of course with the precautions recommended for the specific experiments.

But also electrical heating, infrared heating, microwave heating, boiling water heating, etc. are used.

The primary factor is that the blue flame (non-luminous) is hotter. This is due to more oxygen being available for combustion. the yellow falme (luminous) lacks oxygen and is therefore an example of incomplete combustion, this causes it to lease carbon residue on the apparatus exposed to it -which is hard to clean off.

What is the reasons that a scientist composes a scientific paper after completing an experiment?

This allows other scientists to read the experiment. Other scientists can then perform the same or similar experiment and verify the results. If a scientist is not willing to share results then there is the possibility of the experiment and the results being discredited. The above statement could be true. However, not complete. Why..? Although a scientist has a process or invention it is still allowed to be protected by Intellectual Proprietary Laws. Again the USA government has many classified scientific papers that have to stay classified due to the fact that releasing such data could a threat to National Security. So just because a scientific paper is not available to other scientists does not mean it's discredited.


Why acetone cannot be use as organic solvent?

Acetone is the organic compound with the formula OC(CH3)2. The molecular shape of acetone makes it able to disolve many materials including plastics. This colorless, mobile, flammable liquid is the simplest example of the ketones. It is typically the solvent of choice for cleaning purposes in the laboratory owing to the fact that acetone is miscible with water, it is the solvent of choice for cleaning purposes in the laboratory. It is a common solvent for rinsing laboratory glassware because of its low cost, volatility, and ability to dissolve water. For similar reasons, acetone is also used as a drying agent.


Why experiments with rats?

Why is a Bunsen burner not used for heating when the air hole is closed?

When the air hole is closed, the flame is a luminous flame. This flame is not ideal for heating for the following reasons: it is not as hot as the non-luminous flame it is very unstable it produces a lot of soot thus, only non-luminous flames (the blue one) is ideal for heating. :)
