well the difference is that the electrons that stick together are the ones that produce the colourless salts and the ones that are rebounded off each other pruduce the salts that have colour in them

What ions are colourless?

The transition metals are well known as having colored ions in salts, either when they are present as cations or as anions, and particluarly strong in ionic complexes. ( Not all but those with d electrons that can be excited and absorb visible light.) Most other ions are colorless.

What particles are found in the chemicals that may be responisble for the production of colored light?

Electrons. Mostly, the cations (metal component) or positive ions' electrons. The excitement caused by heating makes the electrons jump from their ground state into a higher energy level. The absorbed energy from there is released as a photon of light when returning to its original place. That is what we see.

Do the transition metals form cations or anions?

''Cations'' breh. Transition metals often form ions wihout complete octets that's why all the stable ions are all cations You can also tell that they form cations because some of the trans metals form colored compounds and give off light. Light is only given off by cations, not anions.
