Ferric nitrate gives a yellow color when reacting with salicylic acid due to the formation of a complex between the iron ions (Fe³⁺) and the hydroxyl groups of salicylic acid. This complexation results in a charge transfer that produces a yellow-colored species. The intense color is indicative of the presence of the iron-salicylate complex, which is a characteristic behavior of phenolic compounds interacting with transition metal ions.
The yellow color of the flame is due only to sodium.
Your question is rather broad, but here are a few. Potassium chromate yellow Aluminum chloride light yellow Ferric nitrate light violet Ferric Chloride mustard Ferrous chloride/sulfate green Copper (II) sulfate blue Cupric chloride green Nickel chloride (hydrate) green Potassium dichromate orange Potassium permanganate purple Bromine water dark red Iodine water brown
Sodium compounds, such as sodium nitrate or sodium chloride, are commonly used to produce a yellow color in fireworks. When these compounds are ignited, they emit a bright yellow flame.
red-brown
Zinc nitrate solution is typically colorless or pale yellow. The color may vary slightly depending on the concentration of the solution and any impurities present. In general, it does not have a distinct color like some other metal nitrates.
The color reaction between salicylic acid and ferric chloride is based on the formation of a complex between salicylic acid and ferric ion. The complex absorbs light in the visible range, resulting in a color change from pale yellow to purple or blue depending on the concentration of salicylic acid. This reaction is commonly used in analytical chemistry for qualitative detection of phenols.
Ferric chloride, or iron(III) chloride will not react with aspirin. It will, however, react with salicylic acid, which is used to synthesize aspirin. In this light, adding an aqueous ferric chloride solution to a sample of aspirin is a good way to see if there is any unreacted salicylic acid. A purple color is an indication of salicylic acid. A sample of pure aspirin should not exhibit any color change.
Ferric sulphate solution is typically yellow in color, often ranging from pale yellow to dark amber depending on its concentration.
The flame color of sodium nitrate solution is a bright yellow color. When the solution is heated, the sodium ions emit this characteristic yellow color when they are excited and then return to their ground state.
Ferric sulfate typically appears as a yellow-brown or reddish-brown solid.
The flame of barium nitrate typically produces a pale green color when burned. This green color is a characteristic flame test color for barium compounds.
The color of ferric chloride after boiling in water typically remains unchanged, appearing as a yellow-brown solution. Heating ferric chloride in water does not alter its chemical structure, so the color remains consistent with its original form.
Iron nitrate typically produces a yellow-orange flame color when it is heated. This color is due to the presence of iron ions in the compound.
Lead compounds tend to be blue in flame tests
Ferric chloride gives green solution in waterReddish or yellowish
The nitrate ion imparts no color to a solution.
All sodium salts will give a yellow flame test, because of the metal sodium in the compounds.
