Sodium ions will glow yellow in the presence of a flame.
The color of a flame is determined by the specific metal ions present in the substance being burned. In this case, both sodium chloride and sodium nitrate contain sodium ions, which are responsible for the yellow color observed in the flame test. When these substances are burned, the sodium ions are excited and emit yellow light, resulting in the same color of flame.
In a flame test , the sodium ion will produce a bright yellow flame. The nitrate ion does not produce a colour. Dissolve sodium nitrate in water. Then using a ni-chrome wire, clean it in hydrochloric acid, dip the clean wire intoi the solution. Then pass the wire through a bunsen flame. The pale blue flame, will become bright yellow. Different metal ions produce different flame colours. Lithium = red Potassium = lilac Copper = Blue/green
One way to differentiate between iron chloride and sodium chloride solutions is to perform a chemical test using silver nitrate. Iron chloride solution will form a white precipitate of silver chloride, while sodium chloride solution will not react with silver nitrate. Another method is to use a flame test: iron chloride imparts a yellow color to the flame, while sodium chloride does not.
To distinguish between silver nitrate and calcium nitrate, you can perform a simple solubility test. Silver nitrate is soluble in water, forming a clear solution, while calcium nitrate is also soluble in water but may form a cloudy solution due to the presence of dissolved calcium ions. Additionally, you can conduct a flame test; silver nitrate produces a white flame, while calcium nitrate does not impart a distinct color to the flame.
Iron nitrate typically produces a yellow-orange flame color when it is heated. This color is due to the presence of iron ions in the compound.
The yellow color of the flame is due only to sodium.
All sodium salts will give a yellow flame test, because of the metal sodium in the compounds.
Because the color is due to the sodium. All of them have sodium, all of them give the same color. Technically nitrogen, oxygen, and chlorine have spectral lines as well; it's just that sodium's are much more prominent.

Sodium compounds like sodium chloride and sodium nitrate contain sodium ions that emit yellow light when heated. When they are placed in a flame, the energy from the heat excites the electrons in the sodium ions, causing them to jump to a higher energy level before returning to their ground state and emitting yellow light. This is why they all impart the same color flame.
It is recommended to use the sodium chloride solution; the color in the flame test is yellow.
If you have the solid of whatever your testing and you burn it (flame test) it will burn with an orange flame if sodium is present. To establish whether it is sodium CHLORIDE, ad a solution of what your testing to silver nitrate and it should form a white precipitate if it's sodium chloride.

The flame of strontium nitrate is red. It produces a bright red color when ignited.
The color (yellow) is due to the metal ion (sodium), the other element does not participate.
To test for strontium nitrate, you can perform a flame test which will produce a red flame color. For ammonium carbonate, it will release ammonia gas when heated and form a white precipitate when reacted with a sodium hydroxide solution. Potassium sulfate can be identified by its solubility in water, as it is highly soluble.
