Lab 7: Flame Test

Unkown #1: We put unknown #1 as Strontium Nitrate. We did this because in both the Strontium Nitrate and the unknown #1 when burned turned the flame a vivid solid red.  Lithium Chloride also has a reddish pink hue, but when we burned the Lithium Chloride it burned inconstantly as well as flickered. So, we thought the unknown substance compared better with the striking scarlet Strontium Nitrate rather than the coral Lithium Chloride.

Unknown #2: We thought unknown #2 was Potassium Chloride because compound turned the flame when burned a shade of fuchsia and violet that the only compound close to it was the Potassium chloride which also possessed a lavandar flame when burned..
