Leaving the air hole open before lighting the Bunsen burner will cause a yellow, sooty flame due to incomplete combustion of gas. This can result in the production of harmful gases and carbon monoxide. It is important to close the air hole to ensure a clean, blue flame and efficient combustion.
When a Bunsen burner "strikes back," it typically means that the flame has traveled back into the gas supply line, causing a potentially dangerous situation. This can occur if the air hole is not properly adjusted, leading to a flashback. In this situation, the flame can ignite the gas before it reaches the burner, resulting in a loud pop or even an explosion. It is important to immediately turn off the gas supply and safely ventilate the area if a Bunsen burner strikes back.
Yes, and No. You will get an inaccurate number since of air temperature and a few variables, but it will be relatively close. I do not recommend this, because a few things may happen, and even some I do not even know of. The thermometer will get hot and melt. Or explode. And many other things can happen.
When the air holes of a Bunsen burner are closed, the flame will turn yellow and become sooty due to incomplete combustion. This is because the lack of oxygen restricts the amount of air reaching the flame, leading to inefficient burning of the fuel gas.
A burner can strike back due to an excessive flow of gas or air, causing the flame to ignite outside the burner. This can happen if the burner is not properly adjusted or if there is a blockage in the gas or air supply lines. Improper maintenance or a malfunctioning burner also increases the risk of a burner strike back.
Puffback occurs when unburned oil vapors ignite all at once in the combustion chamber of an oil burner. This explosion can happen when the oil burner system is not functioning properly, leading to a buildup of oil vapors that then ignite during start-up. Regular maintenance and inspection of the oil burner system can help prevent puffback incidents.

You have to turn off the gas tap immediately.

If placed close enough, the flammable substance will burst into flames.
Depending on what gas it is, it could be heavier than air, which would mean it could "pool" around in the room and if ignited could explode or cause a huge fireball thereby killing or injuring others. Dont do it.
If the Bunsen burner is turned off, the marble's temperature would gradually decrease as it loses the heat energy absorbed. The marble would eventually cool down to room temperature.

because of the gravity of the sun
After Burner happened in 1987.
After Burner II happened in 1987.
After Burner III happened in 1992.
If you mix too much gas with air in a Bunsen burner, it can result in a noisy or unsteady flame that may produce black soot due to incomplete combustion. This can also pose a safety risk as too much gas can lead to a higher flame temperature and potential fire hazard. Adjusting the gas and air mixture properly is important for producing a clean and efficient flame for heating purposes.
