A Safer Flame Test: Identification of Metals - Identify Elements Emitting Colored Flames by Spectra - Small Group Learning - Experiment Kit - Innovating Science
IDENTIFY ELEMENTS FROM COLORED FLAMES || The flame test is an analytical technique often used for the identification of certain elements, primarily metal ions. This experiment incorporates small candles and a spectroscope to determine which element is causing the colored flame
ENGAGING ACTIVITY || Explore and simulate how geologists and scientists use the flame test for fieldwork. During the experiment, the color of the flame is observed and the spectra of light emitted from the flame is viewed through a spectroscope to determine the element that gives the flame its color
EXCELLENT FOR REMOTE LEARNING || Great for Distance Learning and home schooling - kit includes instruction manual, worksheets and enough materials for 5 groups of students. Makes an exciting home science project!
MATERIALS INCLUDED || Kit includes everything needed to conduct the experiment - boric acid in methanol, sand, color flame candles, alcohol burner, diffraction slides, spectroscope and small trays
