The purpose of this project was to see how different metal compounds effected the color of the flame. The three metal compounds used in this project were Cupric Nitrate, Lithium Nitrate, and Potassium Nitrate. A gas jet and bunsen burner produced this flame; the tool used to place the compound in the flame was a nichrome wire.
Cupric Nitrate produced a green flame, Lithium Nitrate produced a red flame, and Potassium Nitrate fabricated a pinkish-purple flame. According to individual scales, Cupric Nitrate's flame color was 3.0, Lithium Nitrate's flame color was 1.3, and Potassium Nitrate's flame color was 3.7.
