Is a flame test a good way to identify an element?
Limitations:The nichrome wire may still have impurities after cleaning in the hydrochloric acid. This may have an affect on the colour of the flame. This in turn will have an affect on the results obtained, having an affect on the whole experiment.Another limitation is that the flame already burns red/orange so this may make it a judgement call of what colour the flame is. If this judgement is incorrect the results of the experiment will be affected.The test cannot differentiate between all elements. Several metals produce the same flame colour. Some compounds do not change the colour of the flame at all.Sodium is present in most compounds and will colour the flame. Sometimes a blue glass is used to filter out the yellow of sodium.The test cannot detect low concentrations of most ions.
What happen the microscope slide on the flame?
It will crack or break.
How long does flame resistant clothing last?
Flame retardent clothing would, in normal terms, last as long as the materials used in the clothing and this would vary from material to material, such as wool, linen, cotton etc. The flame retardent elements of the clothing would only be able to withstand flame and fire destruction depending on the chemicals used The most widely used flame retardent product is a mineral compound known as ATH (aluminium hydroxide). Other common types of flame retardents are organohalogen compounds and organophosphorus compounds.
What compound burns with a black flame?
The organic compounds having high ratio of carbon burn with black smoke (SOOT) as Aromatic compounds for example Benzene, C6H6.
What happen when you mix boric acid with bleach?
The boric acid will dissolve in the methanol, and when lit with a flame will produce a brilliant green flame
What is the flame color of Lead II Nitrate?
Lead compounds tend to be blue in flame tests
At what alcohol content does a flame happen?

Where do flame retardants come from?
Flame retardants are products f the chemical industry. Many flame retardants are known today. Most are oganohalogen or organophosphorus compounds.
What color is produced by sodium compounds in flame tests?
The color that is produced is orange
What are the odds of an old flame and myself get together after 40 years?
it is certainly possible for that to happen, and it is certainly NOT guaranteed that it will. Only you are in a position to explore the situation and find out.
What are the limitations to a flame test?
· The test cannot detect low concentrations of most ions. · The brightness of the signal varies from one sample to another. For example, the yellow emission from sodium is much brighter than the red emission from the same amount of lithium. · Impurities or contaminants affect the test results. Sodium, in particular, is present in most compounds and will color the flame. Sometimes a blue glass is used to filter out the yellow of sodium. · The test cannot differentiate between all elements. Several metals produce the same flame color. Some compounds do not change the color of the flame at all. The flame test only works on certain molecules, more specifically the Alkali/Alkali Earth metals. It doesn't necessarily distinguish between compounds of these molecules neither.

the fire of the non-luminous flame willl haeve a great spark to the flame
What color flame test does sodium nitrate give?
All sodium salts will give a yellow flame test, because of the metal sodium in the compounds.
Why test flame are not acurate?
Because some elements or compounds burn the same color

What flame colour does copper chloride give?
Flame colours depend on just the metal ion. All copper compounds give the same colour, green.
