Does a red flame indicate a low energy?

A red flame has a lower energy than a blue flame, if the color arises from the photon radiation of the flame itself due to the flame's temperature. However, some inorganic ions emit red light when introduced into blue flames, and this kind of red flame does not necessarily have a lower energy than the original blue flame.


What are the layers in a flame?

The layers in a flame are blue red ang ywllow and orange


What is hoter ''blue or red fire?

Blue fire is hotter than red fire, as the color of a flame is indicative of its temperature. Blue flames typically burn at higher temperatures due to more complete combustion.


What is the hottest flame in color is it red blue ornge yellow?

Blue.


Are green lasers the most powerful color out of red blue and green?

Green is the most powerful, next is red, then blue.


Which star is hotter a red star or a blue star?

a blue star is hotter then a red star because it is younger and thus has more energy. a good example of this is when you look at a flame on a lighter you see blue light at the bottom because blue is hottest and closest to the heat source whereas the red-orange flame at the top is farther away from the heat source and thus is not as hot as the blue.


Is green fire hotter then blue fire?

Assuming we're not throwing ions into the flame and the color is due strictly to temperature, the blue flame is hotter.The problem is that flames can be different colors for reasons other than temperature. Specifically, they may contain ionized materials with strong emission lines that color the flame. Probably the easiest example to observe using ordinary household materials is sodium which gives an orangish yellow color (easily seen by dropping a few crystals of table salt into the flame of a gas stove).The reason that hotter flames are blue is that blue light is more energetic than red light. A hotter flame has more energy, and therefore generates more energetic light.


What are all colors of fire?

The colors of fire can range from red, orange, and yellow to blue and white, depending on the temperature of the flame. A cooler flame will appear yellow or orange, while a hotter flame will appear blue or white. Other colors, such as green and purple, can also be seen in certain conditions.


Is the red color is the hottest?

no it is the blue/purple part of the flame


Is a flame red flame hotter than a yellow flame?

Yes, typically a red flame is hotter than a yellow flame. The color of a flame is determined by the temperature of the burning material. In general, hotter flames appear bluer or white, while cooler flames tend to appear yellow or red.


Why is the blue flame hotter than the red flame?

This isn't necessarily true. It depends on WHY the flame is blue. However, it is true that in order for black body radiation (aka cavity radiation) to appear blue, the object it's coming from must be significantly hotter than an object from which the cavity radiation appears red. Blue light has a shorter wavelength (and therefore a higher energy) than red light, so it requires a hotter object for the blue wavelengths to predominate.


Does Copper Chloride produce a blue-green or Red flame?

Copper chloride typically produces a blue-green flame when burned due to the presence of copper ions in the compound. The green color is a characteristic emission caused by the excitation of electrons in the copper atoms.
