Why is a lithium nitrate flame and a lithium chloride flame the same color?

Lithium nitrate and lithium chloride flame tests produce the same color because it is the lithium electrons that are raised to a higher energy level and then drop back down to their ground state. Any ionic compound containing lithium will give the same results. Flame tests are used to show the color and spectrum of the element as its electrons are raised to a higher energy level and then fall back to their ground state.
