Is a flame test a good way to identify an element?

Limitations:The nichrome wire may still have impurities after cleaning in the hydrochloric acid. This may have an affect on the colour of the flame. This in turn will have an affect on the results obtained, having an affect on the whole experiment.Another limitation is that the flame already burns red/orange so this may make it a judgement call of what colour the flame is. If this judgement is incorrect the results of the experiment will be affected.The test cannot differentiate between all elements. Several metals produce the same flame colour. Some compounds do not change the colour of the flame at all.Sodium is present in most compounds and will colour the flame. Sometimes a blue glass is used to filter out the yellow of sodium.The test cannot detect low concentrations of most ions.

What colour is a Bunsen burner flame?

The most efficient flame that a Bunsen burner can produce should be pale light blue, and almost invisible. A yellow or luminous flame should be avoided as it isn't as hot as the blue flame and leaves sut.


What colour is barium chloride?

for the most part you really can't tell if it's coloring the flame at all, that is if you're burning it right on a Bunsen burner. if you're lucky it might spark or give the slightest bit of a white flame.


What is the tip of a flame called?

The tip of a flame is called the "flame apex" or "flame tip." It is the hottest part of the flame, where combustion is most efficient, and typically appears as the brightest part of the flame. This area is where the fuel and oxidizer are actively reacting, producing light and heat.

Solution contains metallic ion blue in colour flame test produce blue green colour The solution forms a precipitate when sodium hydroxide is added to the solution What is the ion in the solution?

The metallic ion in the solution is likely copper(II) ion (Cu^2+). This is based on its blue color in a flame test, which gives a blue-green flame, and the formation of a blue precipitate when sodium hydroxide is added, indicating the presence of Cu(OH)2.
