Bunsen Burner Day

When is Bunsen Burner Day? This holiday is always observed on March 31

Bunsen Burner Day is today. This March 31 holiday celebrates the birthday of its creator. German chemist Robert Wilhelm Eberhard von Bunsen was born on March 31, 1811. And, you guessed it, von Bunsen created the Bunsen Burner.

High school students know all about the bunsen burner. It’s a standard piece of equipment in a science lab. If you work in a chemistry laboratory, chances are you use the burner in your job. If it’s been a while since high school chemistry class, the memory of the Bunsen burner may have faded somewhat.

In case your memory has faded, the Bunsen Burner is a long, hollow tube. Gas and air are combined to create an extremely hot flame. The burner is used in a wide range of scientific and laboratory projects.
