When burned, potassium produces a lilac or light purple flame, while calcium produces an orange-red flame. These distinct colors can be used to identify the presence of these elements in a flame test. The differing colors are due to the specific wavelengths of light emitted when the excited electrons in these elements return to their ground state.
