Potassium ions will emit visible light when excited, for example during a flame test. We see this as a lilac colour.

What color flame test does Potassium give with a cobalt glass?
The color given off from the potassium through the blue cobalt glass is somewhat if a lavender, lilac color.
What the purpose of the gas Hydrogen?
Hydrogen is the lightess, but most common element in the galaxy. It can be used to make balloons rise, be burned to give off heat, or burned to give engine thrust.
A science teacher added the reactive metal potassium to water. The metal formed a ball shapeon the surface of the water and the gas given off burned with a pop. Name the gas given off.?
hydrogen
Can chloride in potassium chloride gas off and evaporate like chlorine?
hi go on msp and give x lexi reed x autos
Why does potassium give off a purple flame in flame test?
Potassium gives off a lilac purple color due to the energy level configuration of the potassium atom. When heated the electrons become excited to higher levels of energy. When they "move" to a lower energy state, they give off energy in the form of light (photons). The color seen by your eye is a combination of certain specific colors (frequencies) of photons. It is the same as when you hear a musical chord. It is actually a combination of several different musical notes (frequencies).
What color does Na give off when burned?
orange
Why do potassium oxide and potassium chloride give off the same colour of light in a flame test?
The color is from the potassium !
What color flame test does Potassium give with a cobalt glass?
The color given off from the potassium through the blue cobalt glass is somewhat if a lavender, lilac color.
What color does copper give off?
When heated, copper produces a bright green flame. This green color comes from the emission of light by excited copper atoms in the flame.
What color it emitted by potassium?
Potassium does not emit a specific color on its own. However, when potassium compounds are heated in a flame, they can give off a lilac or light purple color.
What happens to fossil fuels when there burned?
When fossil fuels are burned they give off heat, the reason why we use them. Then they give gasses such as CO2 for example.
What color flame will rubidium give off?
the color of the flame produced when you burn rubidium is tha same color OS what potassium produce-the colour violet
What color of visible light spectrum is reflected when chemical compounds containing strontium are heated?
Red. Strontium is often used in fireworks to give off a deep red colour when burned.
What the purpose of the gas Hydrogen?
Hydrogen is the lightess, but most common element in the galaxy. It can be used to make balloons rise, be burned to give off heat, or burned to give engine thrust.
What color does argon give off?
Argon does not emit any visible light on its own. It is a noble gas that is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. Argon is often used in fluorescent lighting and signs to produce a blue or purple glow when excited by electricity.
How can you tell when the copper has reacted completely and the excess sulfur is burned off?
You can tell when the copper has reacted completely and the excess sulfur is burned off by observing a consistent color change in the reaction mixture. Once the color stops changing, it indicates that the reaction is complete and all the excess sulfur has been consumed.
