I disagree - calcium burns Red

I disagree with you're answer^ whoever said red... while it is true that calcium burns red, we are talking about a binary compound, not a single element. calcium chloride burns orange.

You are being too general. Calcium Chloride burns a deep orange with a slightly lighter orange core. Just saying orange is not enough.

Just tried it in my lab - the main color is Red -sorry

It depends on the purity of the salt and the amount of organic particles present.
