What’s in A Flame
Different reactions are taking place in different areas of the flame. If insufficient oxygen is present to burn the fuel completely, the flame will glow yellow to red. When the combustion is complete, a much hotter flame of blue-white in colour is obtained. Experience it for yourself in this all-safe yet enlightening exhibit!
