Chromium

I don't know about Chrome, maybe, but Copper definitely does and is the most well known for doing so. So I would say Copper.

Why do you see colors in flame tests?

When an atom is in the flame, an electron in the outer shell of that atom receives energy from the flame and jumps up to a higher shell position. This electron then falls back to is original position and in doing so emits a photon of light of a specific energy. You see this light as a color. Atoms from different elements have different numbers of electrons in their electron shells so the photons emitted as these electrons jump back are all of different energy and therefore emit light of a different color. The color of the flame in the flame test therefore helps to identify the element in the flame producing the colored light.


What is a flame test?

Answer By exposing materials to a hot flame (from a Bunsen burner typically), the color of the flame can be used to identify the material. Certain elements give off a characteristic color when heated to high temperature. See the Related Links for "Wikipedia: flame test" to the bottom for the answer. A method of obtaining an emission spectrum from a sample


What happens when the test tube containing the green pigment is placed in boiling water?

What colour does just chlorine turn in the flame test?

Chlorine gas itself does not emit a colored flame when subjected to a flame test. Instead, it will impart a green color to the flame when a sample containing chlorine (such as a chloride compound) is included in the flame test.


What element is responsible for green flame produced in the beilstein-Cu test?

Copper is the element responsible for the green flame produced in the Beilstein test. When a copper compound is heated in the presence of a flame, it emits a green color due to the presence of copper ions.

What color does the copper burn in flame test?

When copper is heated in a flame, it burns with a blue-green flame. The color is due to the emission of energy in the form of light as electrons in the copper atoms are excited and then return to their ground state.
