How the Bunsen burner works
The Bunsen burner mixes gas with air before burning it. Gas enters through the riffled connector and leaves a small jet at the foot of the tube; the stream of gas draws air in through the regulator opening, and the mixture burns at the top of the 100 x 12 mm tube. Screwing the regulator to close the opening gives a yellow, luminous flame of incomplete combustion; opening it gives a blue, roaring flame that is much hotter.
Students use it to heat water and solutions over a tripod and gauze, to carry out flame tests on metal salts, to heat substances in boiling tubes, and to observe the inner cone and outer zone of a non-luminous flame. The spare jet allows a blocked or damaged jet to be replaced without taking the burner out of use.
- Connect the riffled connector to the gas tap with burner tubing.
- Close the air regulator and light the gas, keeping the lighter to the side of the tube.
- Open the regulator until the flame turns blue with a distinct inner cone.
- Heat on the blue flame; close the regulator to a yellow safety flame when the burner is left alight.

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of this Bunsen burner?
It is 125 mm high overall, with a nickel-plated burner tube of 100 x 12 mm on an 80 mm diameter pressed steel base.
Why does the flame change from yellow to blue?
Opening the air regulator lets more air mix with the gas before it burns. Combustion becomes more complete, so the flame turns blue, non-luminous and hotter.
