Why do potassium oxide and potassium chloride give off the same colour of light in a flame test?
The color is from the potassium !
What color flame test does potassium chloride?
When flame tested, Sodium ions range from a yellow to a bright orange flame and Potassium ions give a lilac or light purple flame. Neither the Sulphate nor the Chloride ions should have emission spectra in the visible range.
What metal burns with a lilac flame?
Potassium has a violet color in the flame test.
A test that can be used to determine whether a solution has potassium sulfate?
Potassium by flame-ionisation color test: redish purple Sulfate: by Barium chloride suspension test ( BaSO4)solid
What colour flame test do sodium sulphate and potassium chloride give?
well , the colour of potassium chloride is a lilac colour :) hope this helps

What colours do potassium chloride sodium chloride and lithium chloride go in a flame?
Color is determined by the respective cation: Potassium - lilac Sodium - yellow Lithium - red
What color do you get when you burn potassium chloride?
