In a flame test , the sodium ion will produce a bright yellow flame. The nitrate ion does not produce a colour.
Dissolve sodium nitrate in water. Then using a ni-chrome wire, clean it in hydrochloric acid, dip the clean wire intoi the solution. Then pass the wire through a bunsen flame. The pale blue flame, will become bright yellow.
Different metal ions produce different flame colours.
Lithium = red
Potassium = lilac
Copper = Blue/green

What color does sodium iodide burn?
A strong yellow color, from sodium
What color would Potassium nitrate burn?
Purple
What is the flame color of sodium nitrate solution?
Sodium ions will glow yellow in the presence of a flame.
Why do dry sodium chloride the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color of the flame?
The (yellow) sodium color is the same in all.
What color does lithium nitrate burn?
The color of lithium in the flame test is red.
Does sodium nitrate burn in an oxygen free atmosphere?
Sodium nitrate itself does not burn. It is an oxidizer. It can be used in place of oxygen to burn materials.
Why do sodium chloride and the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color flame?
The color is from sodium, not from Cl or Nitrate - NO3.
Why do sodium chloride and sodium nitrate impact the same color of the flame?
The yellow color of the flame is due only to sodium.

What happens when lead II nitrate and sodium sulfate react?
The lead nitrate and sodium sulfate precipitate together and becomes lead sulfate and sodium nitrate. lead nitrate+ sodium sulfate --> lead sulfate + sodium nitrate
