A normal Bunsen burner has a chimney which contains gas, a collar to adjust the air hole, a air hole that will leak gas, a gas tap that provides gas to the burner and the rubber tubing leads gas to the burner.

What is the functions of all the parts in a Bunsen burner?
Funtions of the Bunsen burner: air-hole: to control the amount of air let into the Bunsen burner for combustion. barrel: To allow the flame to beat a suitable height for burning. base: To support the Bunsen burner so that it will not fall over. collar: helps to adjust the gas being produced gas tap: to store gas. jet: To allow gas to enter the Bunsen Burner ( by helpingppl) Flame: the one part you don't want to forget
What is the 6 parts of Bunsen burner?
BarrelThe barrel of a Bunsen burner is a metal tube that screws onto the base of the burner, with small holes called air intake openings in the bottom that let air into the barrel. As outlined by the Eastern Illinois University's Equipment Guide when a Bunsen burner is operational, natural gas draws air into the barrel as it passes the air intake openings--the mixture of air and gas is ignited at the top end of the barrel.CollarThe collar of a Bunsen burner is located around the air holes on the bottom of the barrel. The collar's function is to increase or decrease the amount of air going into the barrel; this is done through a screw mechanism. The typical action is three full counterclockwise turns for the maximum air intake and clockwise turns to close, or lower, the air intake.Gas Flow ValveThe gas flow valve of a Bunsen burner is attached to the base, directly underneath where the barrel screws on. The gas flow valve is responsible for letting gas into the barrel and can be adjusted in a similar manner to the collar--three counterclockwise turns for full gas, and clockwise turns for lesser gas or to turn the burner off completely.Gas Intake TubeThe gas intake tube is attached to the base and extends to the gas flow valve. The intake tube is corrugated and tapers at the end. This is so that an air-tight fit can be achieved with the gas pipe that is attached to the gas intake tube, making sure that there is no leakage of gas.BaseTypically, the base of a Bunsen burner is hexagonal (has six sides) and is usually 1 inch or less wide. A base has upward-slanting metal fixings on two sides that connect just above the gas flow valve and just below the gas intake tube. The base is designed to be heavy and sturdy to minimize incidents of Bunsen burners tipping over.
Give the functions of the parts of the Bunsen burner?
The gas intake and gas valve control the flow of gas. The air holes and collar allow for control over the oxygen taken, with more providing a hotter, more controlled flame. The barrel simply brings these materials to the point of combustion.

What is a Bunsen burner and its parts and how is it used?
From Wikipedia (see Link to the left):A Bunsen burner is a device used in scientific laboratories for heating, sterilization, and many other uses.The device safely burns a continuous stream of a flammable gas such as natural gas (which is principally methane) or a liquified petroleum gas such as propane, butane, or a mixture of both.From ScienceByJones.com (see Link to the left):The Bunsen burner is used frequently in the laboratory as a source of heat. This burner is designed so that gaseous fuel may be mixed with the correct amount of air to yield the maximum amount of heat. In order to use this burner properly and safely, it is essential that you understand its construction and the adjustments that can be made.The three principal parts of the burner are: barrel, needle valve, and base. The quantity of gas admitted to the burner is controlled by the needle valve, while the air needed for combustion is admitted at the small opening around the bottom of the barrel. The air is controlled by turning the barrel so as to make the air holes larger or smaller.Always open the desk outlet valve fully and regulate the gas supply to the burner by the needle valve. Always extinguish your burner by turning off the desk outlet valve (and then closing the needle valve and barrel.) If there is an accident always shut off the desk outlet valve immediately.STEPS TO LIGHT BUNSEN BURNER:1. Check connections to burner and desk outlet valve.2. Close needle valve and barrel.3. Open desk outlet valve fully.4. Check for leaks with flame.5. While holding flame above barrel, open needle valve 1/2 turn.6. Adjust barrel and needle valve for blue in blue flame.Always light burner in open space on lab counter. After you have adjusted it for the flame needed move it into position. One person in lab group is always responsible for maintaining the burner and flame.Burner Procedure:1. Light the burner according to our rules. Observe the yellow flame which is produced because not enough air is admitted to give complete combustion. The yellow color is caused by small particles of unburned carbon which become incandescent.2. Now rotate the barrel until the flame is entirely blue. Two different zones should appear when the burner is correctly adjusted. Too much air should not be admitted as it may cool the flame or blow it out entirely. After having the teacher confirm a good hot, blue flame draw a diagram of the flame (use labels and descriptions). Indicate on your diagram of the flame where the hottest part of the flame is located.See the Web Links to the left for more information.Bunsen burner barrels can be rotated, either opening or closing the barrel, to adjust the flow of air or oxygen, thereby controlling the flame.

How was the Bunsen burner invented?
Robert Bunsen was a German chemist, who is credited along with his partner, Peter Desaga, with the invention of the Bunsen Burner. In 1877, Bunsen along with Gustav Kirchhoff, was the recipient of the very first Davy Award. He was one of the most admired scientists of the time.
Parts of a Bunsen burner adjusted?
There are two adjustable parts on the Bunsen burner, the knob to control gas flow and the rotation of the collar to control air flow. The gas flow control, adjusts the size of the flame by controlling how much gas is burned. While the collar controls the intensity of the flame by controlling how completely the gas burns, more complete combustion the hotter the flame. These are the two parts to adjust a Bunsen burner, I hope I have answered your question.
