Best Answer

It depends on the compound. If the compound contains copper (I) ions, the flame is blue. If the compound contains copper (II) ions bonded to a halogen (F, Cl, I, Br, or At), the flame will be a blue-green color, and if the compound contains copper (II) ions and no halogens, the flame will be a deep green.
