Flame Test Lab

Goal: the reorganization of atoms in chemical reactions results in the release or absorption of heat energy.

Chemical formula:           Name of Metal:             Color Produced:
KNO3                                   K                                 peach color
Sr (NO3)                               Sr                                  orange red
BaCNo3                                Ba                                  yellow
CuCl2                                   Cu                                 lime green
DEW                                     D                                 Yellow, and green sparks.
LiNO3                                   Li                                 red
CoCl3                                  Co                                 yellow

In this lab we learned what metals change the color of a flame when it is put in the flame.
 the flame color changed is what a chemical reaction is, when a metal mixes with flame it will change colors depending on what metal it is. My favorite metal to put into the flame was the Sr (NO3) because the color of the flame was orange red. it was a bright color.
