Why it is dangerous to light a Bunsen burner with the air hole open?
Opening the air hole on a Bunsen burner before lighting it can create a flammable gas-air mixture that is highly explosive. This increases the risk of a flashback when the flame ignites, which can cause a sudden, intense flare-up and potential injury. It is important to always light a Bunsen burner with the air hole closed to prevent this dangerous situation.
What will be the result If the gas regulator is turned clockwise while burner is still unlighted?
Turning the gas regulator clockwise while the burner is unlit will increase the gas flow to the burner. If the burner is then ignited, there is a risk of a large, uncontrolled flame or even a flash fire. It is important to always light the burner before adjusting the gas flow.
