This depends upon the element.
Calcium typically produces an orange-red flame when subjected to a flame test.
When the element is subjected to flame, the electrons are in a high energy state. When they come back down to a stable state energy is released in the form of light. The color emitted depends on the amount of energy released.The different colors of the light emitted are caused by the different quantities of electrons losing energy in different elements.
Selenium nitrate typically gives a pink or reddish flame color when subjected to a flame test.
Boron is the element that gives a green flame when it is heated.
Yes. Every element has a very particular emission spectrum. Each element has a specific structure of nucleus and electron orbits. Because of this, when a certain element is ionized (ie. by a flame), the electrons rejoining with the nuclei give off a specific frequency of light. The color of light witnessed after burning the compound is an indicator of the elements present.
Lithium is the element that produces a red flame when it reacts with water.
need to find the answer to what doe slithium carbonate look like in a flame test
No, the element of silver is not flammable and will not catch fire. However, this element does melt when subjected to extreme temperatures.
Alkynes do not produce a specific color in a flame test. Unlike some other elements and compounds which give characteristic flame colors, alkynes do not exhibit a noticeable color when subjected to a flame test.
Neither. Flame is a mixture of air and partially burned material.
The flame test is not used to detect magnesium; a magnesium oxide rod is used as a support for the solutions of other elements in the flame test.
Chlorine gas itself does not emit a colored flame when subjected to a flame test. Instead, it will impart a green color to the flame when a sample containing chlorine (such as a chloride compound) is included in the flame test.
