Because heat rises. That means the top of the flame would br holding 99% of the heat. That is why the tip is hotter than other areas og the flame.

Why does a Bunsen burner have different temperatures on the flame?

The basic fuel to a Bunsen burner is a hydro carbon which on heating breaks the carbon bond with other elements with differentiated calorific value and combustion with oxygen. This results in different zones with differentiated temperature


What is climatic normals?

The Earth has many different climates, depending on which part of the world one is in. The tropical zones have hotter climates than the Arctic and Antarctic zones. The temperate zones experience the greatest temperature fluctuations.


How many layers does the hottest flame have?

The hottest part of a flame typically consists of three layers: the innermost blue cone where combustion occurs, the intermediate faint blue region where gases mix and ignite, and the outermost yellow region where incomplete combustion occurs.


Why are tropical zones hotter than temperate zones?

Tropical zones are hotter than temperate zones primarily due to their proximity to the equator, where the sun's rays strike more directly throughout the year. This results in less variation in temperature and consistently higher average temperatures. In contrast, temperate zones experience greater seasonal changes, with varying angles of sunlight and longer periods of cooler weather. Additionally, the tropical regions have less atmospheric interference, such as cloud cover, allowing for more direct solar heating.


Why dark zone and non luminous zone are considered as the most polluting zones of a candle flame?

The dark zone and non-luminous zone of a candle flame are considered the most polluting because they contain incomplete combustion products. In the dark zone, where the flame is cooler and lacks sufficient oxygen, carbon particles and soot are formed due to incomplete combustion of the wax. The non-luminous zone, while hotter, still produces volatile organic compounds and other pollutants as the wax continues to burn inefficiently. These areas contribute to air pollution and can release harmful substances into the environment.

what are the two most polluting zones of a candle flame?

The two most polluting zones of a candle flame are the bright yellow outer zone, which contains unburned soot particles, and the dark zone close to the wick, which contains partially burned carbon compounds. These zones contribute to the production of pollutants such as carbon monoxide and particulate matter.

What are the different zones of candle flame?

The candle flame has 4 zones from innermost to outermost: 1)Blue zone: It is near the base of the flame. Here the fresh air rapidly mixes with was vapour formed from the molten wax.A part of wax vapour completely burns and gives rise to blue flame. 2)Dark inner zone: This part consists of unburnt wax vapour given off by molten wax.It is the coldest part of the flame It is dark because of of decomposed carbon particles. 3) Luminous zone: In this zone partial combustion takes place with liberation of a lot of heat. This zone is hotter than the dark inner zone. 4) Non luminous zone:It is a zone were complete combustion takes placeIt is hottest part of the flame and is hardly visible.


Do new mexico life zones get colder and wetter or hotter and dryer as they become higher in altitude?

yes in fact the higher you are in altitude the golder and wetter it gets


What would be the effect be on earth's seasons if the axis were tilted at 28.5 degrees instead of 23.5 degrees?

They would be more extreme: winters would be colder and summers would be hotter. The temperate zones would contract, and the polar and tropical zones would expand.
