How does a yellow flame on a Bunsen burner make things black but the roaring flame doesn't?
The flame of a Bunsen burner that is yellow in color will leave a black carbon residue due to the incorrect mixture of oxygen into the flame. Because there is not enough oxygen for complete combustion, the carbon reside is left behind. When the Bunsen flame has a sufficient amount of oxygen mixed in, hence the 'roaring flame', it has a blue color and does not leave a carbon residue due to complete combustion of the acetylene gas.
Why should you turn a Bunsen burner to a yellow flame if you need to leave it?
The yellow flame is more visible - making it easier for others to see. It's also a colder flame than the blue conical one.
