An important skill for chemistry courses is learning how to control the flame of a Bunsen Burner. Students must maximize the oxygen available to the flame, so that the gas is burned cleanly and provides maximum heat. In this lab exercise, the students learn how to produce such a flame and control its height and positioning. They will use these skills in future lab exercises.
