A better question would be "which elements burn red", as more than one element burns red. Lithium chloride burns red, calcium chloride burnds a red-orange, and strontium chloride burns bright red.

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoSeveral elements create a red flame in a flame test. Lithium, Calcium and Strontium are three examples.

Why does sodium emit a yellow color when heated?
Im not 100% sure, but assuming we know that different colors are emitted according to energy level (which is related to which shell the electron is one) we can say that the reason Na emits a yellow color is because it's electron isn't on one of the outer shells (i.e 6th or 7th) therefore it emits a yellow light instead of a blue light (high energy) or red (low energy)
What element does californium make when it emits an alpha particle?
Curium isotopes
What are the properties of Promethium?
It is a rare earth element metal that emits beta radius.
Why does sodium make fire yellow?
Energy from the fire temporarily promotes some of the electrons in atoms to higher energy levels. When they fall back down to the ground state, and this emits light of characteristic frequencies ... in the case of sodium, two of the most prominent lines are in the yellow-orange region of the spectrum.
Witch element is likely to be contained in a substance with a yellow color?
Chromium is a likeley element to be contained in a substance with a brilliant yellow color.
What spectum is obtained When any element in the gas phase is excited to the point where it emits visible light?
When any element is excited to the point where it emits visible light, it emits a unique spectrum. The mercury in a florescent lamp emits a spectrum in the ultraviolet spectrum. It excites phosphorus powder on the inside of the bulb. The ultraviolet rays strike the phosphorus and it emits white light. Sodium emits yellow light. Potassium emits purple light. Sodium actually emits two different yellows. Each element emits several different colors.The above is not wrong, but it doesn't really answer the question. I believe the answer the poster was looking for is emission spectrum.You may be correct. I have no intention of giving the emission spectrum of every element. I only wished to help the questioner understand what happens when an emission spectrum is produced. I had the idea that the questioner had the idea that every element produced the same emission spectrum. We interpreted the question differently.
Which solid waxy element emits light continuously?
Magnesium
What element emits a red light when an electron transition occures?
neon
The Sun emits its most intense radiation as?
While the sun emits all types of light, from radio waves, to gamma rays the most intense type of light (electromagnetic radiation) is yellow light.
Is a star that emits mostley yellow visible light hotter than a red star?
Yes.
What color is the sun actually?
The sum emits light on many different frequencies including that of all colours and also invisible frequencies like ultra-violet, microwave etc.When the visible light from the sun is examined, the light peaks at the frequency for yellow meaning the sun emits more yellow than all other colours. Since the light is not even amongst all colours then it makes the sun not white but yellow. Kind of like a classic light-bulb.This is why our sun is called a Yellow Dwarf Star.
What part of the periodic table would you expect to find an element that emits light when struck by electrons?
lower left
Does a star hold light?
No, it only emits light. The heat gets radiated away as light.No, it only emits light. The heat gets radiated away as light.No, it only emits light. The heat gets radiated away as light.No, it only emits light. The heat gets radiated away as light.
Which element emits violet color?
no element specifically emits a violet color, but instead its a mixture of some elements producing it. 3/13/12
What color attracts mosquitos least?
the bright color of yellow/ neon yellow or any lightest color you can find.
A black hole emits no light because of its?
a black hole emits no light because of its high gravity
What element gives a yellow light when held over a fire?
Na (Sodium)
