in a bunsen burner...

Answer 1

depends what kind of flame you are using. and what you are trying to heat.

if your flame as a yellow tip then the blue part/'s are the hottest

if its an entirely blue flame, then there is a small white section close to the actual bunsen (i believe) that will be the hottest.

the blue flame is the hottest
