Glass color is added during the manufacturing process by incorporating metal oxides or other colorants into the molten glass mixture. Different metal oxides create different colors in the glass, with cobalt oxide producing blue, chromium oxide creating green, and manganese oxide yielding purple, for example. The amount and type of colorant used will determine the final hue of the glass.

Which oxide imparts the green colour in the glass?
Chromium oxide is the compound that imparts the green color in glass when added as a coloring agent.
Which transparent material is made of sand?
Common glass is made from clean sand, soda, and limestone. Various other elements may be added to modify the properties of the glass - colour, density etc.
Can you recycle purple glass?
Yes all glass can be recycled. The colour of the glass is of a consideration in its ultimate reuse. Clear glass generally segregated from all coloured glass and recycled into clear glass products. Coloured glasses may be accumulated for specific colour uses. Mixed glass will be reused for "brownish" glass uses or for processing into materials such as Fiberglas insulation where colour does not matter.
Which chemicals are added to make a colours of glass?
Different metal oxides are added to glass to create various colors. For example, iron oxide is added for green glass, cobalt oxide for blue glass, selenium for red glass, and manganese for purple glass. The specific oxide added will determine the color of the glass.

Does glass come from plants?
Glass is made when several minerals are melted together at high temperatures. Silica (the main ingredient) in the form of sand is combined with soda ash and limestone and is melted in a furnace at 1700°C. Other materials can be added to create different colour properties.
