When sodium metal is added to water an orange flame is observed on the metal surface. Based on this observation what can best be concluded?
A chemical reaction occurs because heat and light are given off.
Does sodium burn in air?
Sodium Chloride is really just table salt, and cannot actually oxidize or combust. However, if placed in a flame burning something else, sodium compounds give off a distinctive yellow radiance, a result of the sodium ionizing and then releasing that energy.
A flame can move grow larger and give off heat is a flame alive?
No it is not a live, cuz the flame do not have cells
What gas does the Sodium Sulphite give off?
anyone answer?
What color does calcium nitrate give off in a flame test?
It is a white solid that is soluble in water According to http://www.ilumina-dlib.org/browseRecord.asp?fileName=651-marc.xml&fileLocation=LiveData&sortBy=guid&orderBy=asc&taxon1=Chemistry&taxon2=&taxon3= it produces an orange flame
When sodium is heated in flame it will give?
Flame tests are often used to identify metals and other substances, such as sodium. If you expose the element sodium to flame, it will give off a bright, vibrant yellow color.
What elements are used to give different colours?
Sodium give off a yellowish orange color. This is why sodium light are yellowish orange. In fireworks the addition of different compounds can cause red, blue, yellow, etc. Aluminum, copper, barium, and other metals are used.

What electromagnetic waves does a fire give off?
IR, Red, Orange in a typical fire. A pure hydrogen fire however gives off only IR and a barely visible amount of Blue. Metallic salts in the flame will add their own characteristic colors (e.g. sodium: Yellow, copper: Green).

Which elements give off a color when heated and what color?
Different elements produce different colors when heated. Here are a few examples: Lithium produces a red flame Sodium produces a yellow flame Copper produces a blue-green flame Potassium produces a lilac flame Barium produces a pale green flame
What color does sugar produce you n a flame test?
Flame of itself is yellow/white. This is white hot carbon particles. Carbon, per se, does not form ions and so cannot give a flame test colour.
A flame can move grow larger and give off heat is a flame alive?
No it is not a live, cuz the flame do not have cells
Does sodium lighting give off UV?
No. Neither High or Low pressure Sodium Vapour lamps give off much energy in the UV wavelengths.
What colour does barium give off when put into a flame?
Bright Indigo
What gas does the Sodium Sulphite give off?
anyone answer?
Why is visible light given off when a salt such as sodium chloride is exposed to a flame?
excited electrons returning to the ground state.
