When different metals are burned in oxygen, the colors arise from the excitation of electrons in the metal atoms. Each metal has a specific electron configuration, leading to unique energy level transitions and emission of light in different colors. The color of the flame is a result of this unique emission spectrum for each metal.
What else can I help you with?
Can graphite burn and produce flames?
Yes, graphite can burn and produce flames when exposed to a high enough temperature.
What do you need to make different color fires?
To make different color fires, you can use specific chemicals or materials that produce colored flames when burned. For example, adding copper chloride can create blue flames, while strontium chloride can produce red flames. It's important to use caution when working with these materials and to be aware of any safety guidelines.
What do flames produce?
flames produces light enery co,co2,and other compounds
Does a non luminous flame produce a lot of carbon residue?
Yes, non-luminous flames produce less carbon residue compared to luminous flames. These flames have the right amount of oxygen for combustion, resulting in more complete burning of the fuel and less soot or carbon deposit.
What is a manipulated variable for the rainbow fire science experiment?
A manipulated variable could be the type of fuel used in the experiment, such as different types of chemicals or substances added to the fire to produce different colored flames.
What causes the rainbow fire?
Rainbow fire effects are caused by different chemicals added to the flames that create different colored flames when burned. For example, copper compounds produce blue or green flames, while strontium compounds produce red flames. Mixing these chemicals can create a variety of colors in the fire.
What does salt produce in fireworks?
Salt is used in fireworks to produce specific colored flames when it burns. Different salts produce different colors when ignited, creating the vibrant displays seen in fireworks.
Can graphite burn and produce flames?
Yes, graphite can burn and produce flames when exposed to a high enough temperature.
What do you need to make different color fires?
To make different color fires, you can use specific chemicals or materials that produce colored flames when burned. For example, adding copper chloride can create blue flames, while strontium chloride can produce red flames. It's important to use caution when working with these materials and to be aware of any safety guidelines.
Why is one type of flame hotter than the other?
Many different chemicals burn and produce flames, but different chemicals have different chemical properties, and produce different amounts of energy when they burn. Those which produce more energy, will also produce hotter flames.
Why are flames orange?
Flames aren't always orange, their colour is depenant on what material is being burned. A substance with contains a high percentage of copper will burn with a green flame and if is contains strontium the flame would be red. Different substances produce different flame colours and this property can be used to identify substances. Orange flames indicate the presence of Sodium.
What do flames produce?
flames produces light enery co,co2,and other compounds
Why does barium make flames green?
It is the characteristic colour of a barium flame.
What properties do yellow flames have?
Yellow flames typically indicate an incomplete combustion process, due to a lack of oxygen or inefficient burning of fuel. They tend to be cooler compared to blue flames and can produce more soot and pollutants. Yellow flames can be a sign of a malfunctioning gas appliance or poor ventilation.
How many flames does the Bunsen burner produce?
2
Why are flames important?
to produce heat and burn materails
What color flames would you get from burning lithium?
a hot pink/red colour
