No, many elements outside the s-block will also give a flame test.

Here are a few examples.

Some d-block elements include:

  • Copper (blue-green flame)
  • Manganese (yellowish green flame)
  • Zinc (blue-green flame)

Some p-block elements include:

  • Lead (blue flame)
  • Thallium (green flame)
  • Selenium (azure flame)

How do you differentiate elements and compounds?

Elements can not be made into simpler substances even by chemical reactions. Compounds can be broken down to simpler substances and eventually to elements. One useful observation is that an element will burn to give only one product, whereas a compound will give more than one.


Why does the anion not play a role in the color of a flame in a flame test?

Anions do not play a role in the color of a flame in a flame test because they are not visible as the energy gap do not correspond to that of a visible photon. Flame tests are only applicable to cations.
