Different colors of fire

Answer 1

In the laboratory, the chemist can opt to use the so-called flame test to make some initial determinations about what metal ions might be in a substance. By exposing a material to an open flame and then observing the color of the flame as the substance burns, the labratory staffer can zero in on or at least narrow the field in his investigation. Lots and lots of chemicals change the color of fire. All of fireworks hinges on chemical principles to get colors, We've mastered the knowledge of what elements or compounds will produce what colors when included in the pyrotechnics. Metal salts like those of copper, to cite a single example, are specifically included in the makeup of shells to impart a specific color. Small packages of "fire colorant" have been sold for years. They are sprinkled on logs to produce an enhanced effect when the wood burns in the fireplace. A link can be found below to the Wikipedia post on the flame test. In that article, you'll find a list of the metal ions and the colors they impart to a flame when burned. Another link is supplied in case you'd like to try to color the flames in your fireplace.

Answer 2

Kind of. It may appear to change colour but it isn't the element that does that.

Imagen there was a firework that went from blue to white
It would be like this


(Cobalt(Magnesium)Cobalt)


Now if that was a circle it would be a magnesium inside coated completely by cobalt. In the air the cobalt would burn blue, giving off the blue, then when all the cobalt goes, the magnesium would light, giving off a white light.

Answer 3

• Blue fire: often seen in high-temperature flames, such as those produced by certain chemicals or gases.
• Green fire: can result from copper compounds or borax.
• Red fire: typically associated with the presence of strontium in the burning material.
• Purple fire: can be created by a combination of different chemicals or through the use of specific metal salts.

Answer 4

The color of the flames of fire will change based on the amount of energy they are releasing and the substance they are burning. Higher energy flames are blue, while lower energy are red.

Answer 5

yes. A red flame would be hotter than a yellow flame and a blue flame would be hotter than a red flame.

Answer 6

Fire can be red, orange, yellow. I have even seen shades of blue, greenish blue and violet, on the gas stove.

Answer 7

if you put this certian wood in it it will change blue!
