In this lab‚ we tested the effect of flame on different chemical solutions. In order to do this‚ we used a wooden stick soaked in a metal and nonmetal solution‚ hovered it over a bunsen burner‚ and recorded the color that the flame changed to. The seven solutions we tested were lithium chloride‚ strontium chloride‚ calcium chloride‚ sodium chloride‚ barium chloride‚ copper chloride‚ and potassium chloride. However‚ we had another four additional solutions‚ which had unknown chemical composition

Flame Test Laboratory Report Introduction The purpose of this lab is to observe and identify metallic ions‚ using flame tests. The traditional flame test originated when Robert Bunsen invented the Bunsen burner to test two new alkali metals he and his partner had discovered. “A flame test is an analytic procedure used in chemistry to detect the presence of certain elements‚ primarily metal ions‚ based on each element’s characteristic emission spectrum” (Flame Test 1). Using this test‚ an element
Premium Photon Atom Spectroscopy
Lab: Flame Test Purpose: to determine the ID of 2 unknown substances Background Information: Every atom consists of a nucleus with tiny electrons whizzing around it. The further away from the nucleus they are‚ the more energy the electrons have. If a metal atom is heated‚ the electrons get enough energy to jump higher away from the nucleus‚ they become “excited”. When they fall back closer to the nucleus (back to their ground state)‚ they give off this extra energy as light. Why is the

Flame lab test Chemistry Introduction The lab test performed was to determine characteristic colors that were produced by specific metallic ions that are shown in a flame. This happens when an electron gains energy; the electron moves from an energy level that’s farthest away and to an empty orbital close to the nucleus with higher levels‚ so one of the electrons gives off energy. A flame test is a visual test where the energy is in the form of a color change and the change can

Flame Tests Atomic Emission and Electron Energy Levels AES‚ or atomic emission spectroscopy‚ is a method which chemically analyzes the particular wavelength of a sample element to identify and determine the abundance of this certain element. The wavelength of the atomic spectral line unveils the identity of the element while the emitted light intensity is proportional to the number of atoms in the element. The flame test is also a very effective way to identify an individual element. The color
