What would happen if several compounds were mixed together in a flame test?

If several compounds are mixed together in a flame test, the resulting flame may exhibit a combination of colors characteristic of the individual compounds. Some elements may dominate the color, while others might contribute less distinctively. However, the interference from multiple compounds can lead to a muddied or less precise color, making it difficult to identify specific elements present. Additionally, some compounds might react with each other, potentially altering the flame's characteristics or producing unexpected results.


Is green fire hotter then blue fire?

Assuming we're not throwing ions into the flame and the color is due strictly to temperature, the blue flame is hotter.The problem is that flames can be different colors for reasons other than temperature. Specifically, they may contain ionized materials with strong emission lines that color the flame. Probably the easiest example to observe using ordinary household materials is sodium which gives an orangish yellow color (easily seen by dropping a few crystals of table salt into the flame of a gas stove).The reason that hotter flames are blue is that blue light is more energetic than red light. A hotter flame has more energy, and therefore generates more energetic light.


Is butane what you use to make a blue flame if so can you use it in a normal lighter or do you have to put it in a special blue lighter?

Butane is commonly used in lighters to create a blue flame. You can use butane in a regular lighter, but for a more consistent blue flame, you might want to use a torch lighter that is specifically designed for butane. These lighters typically have higher pressure and produce a more intense flame.


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.


If a gas stove gives a smoky flame how can you correct this?

You can correct a smoky flame on a gas stove by ensuring that the burner and surrounding area are clean and free of debris. Adjusting the air-to-fuel ratio by increasing ventilation can also help improve combustion and reduce smoke. If the issue persists, you may need to have the burner checked and serviced by a professional.

What is the difference between flame and heat?

"Flame" is the visible energy when burning something. "Heat" is given off a flame and countless other things. Flame produces heat, but heat does not always generate from flame, and heat almost never produces flame (friction might count). And if you want the definitions: HEAT: a form of energy that is transferred by a difference in temperature. FLAME: the process of combustion of materials producing heat and light and (often) smoke. If you want to think of it a different way: Flame is what you see when you look at a fire and heat if what you feel from the fire.
