Neither. Flame is a mixture of air and partially burned material.
The emission spectrum of an element
Copper is the element responsible for the green flame produced in the Beilstein test. When a copper compound is heated in the presence of a flame, it emits a green color due to the presence of copper ions.
No, because non metal atoms do not enter an excited state.
Potassium is the element found as part of a compound in bananas. When burned, it produces a violet flame due to its characteristic emission spectrum.
Aluminum nitrate does not produce a specific flame color when burned. The flame color produced by a compound is typically due to the metal ion present, rather than the nitrate anion. Aluminum itself does not produce a significant color in flames.
In a flame test, the color of the flame produced can be used to identify the presence of certain elements in a compound. This is due to the unique way each element emits light when heated. By observing and comparing the color of the flame with known standards, one can draw conclusions about the elements present in the sample being tested.
Which combination describes the flame color of the compound when heated?
Boron is the element that gives a green flame when it is heated.
element. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a compound
KCl is a compound not an element.
cornstarch is a compound element.
Beryllium is an element. It is not a compound
