Which combination describes the flame color of the compound when heated?
Which combination describes the flame color of the compound when heated?
What color is a copper compound when you burn it?
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.Copper sulfate burns a light/sky blue colour.
What color flame does potassium ions produce in a flame emmision photometer?
Red-violet.
What colour flame does lithium produce when it is burnt?
The color of lithium in the flame test is red.
What color does lead burn?
Lead burns with a bluish-white flame when ignited. Flame tests use analysis of flame color to detect the presence of particular elements within a compound.
What flame color does aluminum nitrate produce?
This compound will not produce a flame as Aluminum, which is the element that controls whether photons(flame color) are released or not.
