Science:
- Get the equipment.
- Put safety glasses on.
- Put heat mat in the middle of the counter.
- Connect the gas hose to the gas tap.
- Turn the collar to close the air hole.
- Strike a match or light a lighter and hold it above the nozzle.
- Turn the gas tap on without having your arms crossed.
- Turn the collar to open the air hole.
- Close the air hole and turn off the gas tap.
After all the steps have been completed you should have had a flame that is orange or yellow. If you turn the nozzle you will get a small blue flame that is over 100 digress. The blue flame is the hottest flame out of all flames. The blue flame has the most oxygen than any other flame that causes this flame to be the hottest. The blue flame is 3,000 in Fahrenheit. Although the blue flame is barely visible it is still deadly. If you touch this flame you would possibly get 3 degree or 2 degree burns.
Once you have the orange, yellow flame hold a glass,plastic container on the tip of the flame and you will see that there will be black stuff on the container. This stuff is called sot. Sot is black, grey smoke from the flame. It is burned gas. If you do the same thing but to the blue flame you wont be able to see any sot. This is because it has burned all of the gas cause of how strong the blue flame is.
That's all for today's post. Hope you enjoyed this experiment and don't for get to stay safe and don't touch the blue flame nor the orange, yellow flame. Don't forget to leave a comment and some feedback for my learning. Thank you guys for reading today's post. Have a nice day. Bye.
