Barium chloride, or any other barium salt, should burn with a green flame.
When a barium salt is burned, the thermal energy is transferred to the outer electrons of the barium ions. They gain enough energy to excite them to a higher energy level. They then drop back to their ground state, releasing energy. This energy corresponds to a wavelength of light, which is emitted from the ion. This wavelength corresponds to green light, hence the green flame observed.

What color does chloride ion produce in flame test?
yellow Any color in solution; the flame test is for metals.
What color does Iron (III) chloride turn in flame test?
A goldisf color.
What color flame test does sodium chloride give?
Sodium chloride (salt) gives a yellow-orange flame result.
What color flame test does ammonium chloride give?
NH4Cl should not have an impact on a flame thus will emit a orange/yellow glow.
Why does barium give a green flame test?
The heat of the flame excites the metals ions, causing them to emit visible light. The characteristic emission spectra can be used to differentiate between some elements.SO the characteristic emission spectra of Barium contains wavelengths corresponding to green color.
How do you test for the presence of barium ion?
A simple qualitative test is the flame test: barium has a pale/apple green color.
A test that can be used to determine whether a solution has potassium sulfate?
Potassium by flame-ionisation color test: redish purple Sulfate: by Barium chloride suspension test ( BaSO4)solid
What is the flame color of the compound sodium chloride when heated?
No, sodium chloride is a very stable compound
What color does chloride ion produce in flame test?

What is the result with iron II chloride in the test flame?
Iron has a yellow-gold color in the flame test.
What color does Iron (III) chloride turn in flame test?
A goldisf color.
What color flame test does sodium chloride give?
Sodium chloride (salt) gives a yellow-orange flame result.
Can you do a flame test with NaCl in solid form or sodium chloride as an aqueous solution?
It is recommended to use the sodium chloride solution; the color in the flame test is yellow.
What color flame test indicates the presence of calcium?
calcium chloride burns with a orange flame.
What colour flame do you get when you burn strontium chloride?
The flame test for strontium - a strong red color.
What color does sodium chloride burn in a flame test?
