A: If you put a piece of copper wire on any type of flame (most preferably cooking flames), then you would observe that they produce a green color in the flame. Sometimes, it might give youa blue tinge but if it doesn't, it doesn't mean that there's something wrong with the copper you're using.
Red
No color. When burning chlorine, the flame gains no additional color from the chlorine. Examples of this may be found by burning Aluminum chloride or Magnesium chloride, both of which burn colorless. This means that Chlorine contributes no color to the flame.
When Magnesium chloride is burnt in a Bunsen flame, it imparts no colour in the flame.
Copper (II) Nitrate burns in a Green flame
The color of lithium in the flame test is red.
In qualitative analysis, flame tests are used in confirming what kind of metal is present in a solution. The green flame or bluish-green flame color is usually present whenever copper metal is present in a solution.
A bright green color is imparted to the flame by copper chloride
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
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.
