What are the essentials of a colored fire?
Q. our group chose the colored fire to be our topic in our investigatory project and now i felt guilty because i can't find any other essentials of it rather than making presentations more lively and fun to watch. Do you think there are other advantages or even harmful effects of the colored fire to humans or to our environment?

How do I make colored fire?
Q. For my science project, I want to show how you can make fires different colors using chemicals (ie, sodium chloride will burn yellow.) But I don't know how I would do this in a classroom setting. I also need to know why they change these colors.

A. We only see the surface of the Sun, called the photosphere. It is much cooler than the center - about 5400 Celsius (compared with millions of degrees Celsius at the center). The blackbody radiation profile for a 5400 C object corresponds to yellow-white, as perceived by the human eye.

How hot can fire get and what color would it be?
Q. What are the different colors of fire. Just the general ones like blue, red, yellow, orange ect... And how hot are they?
Asked by E L - Tue Apr 14 21:39:48 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If you're familiar with the electromagnetic spectrum at all, you'll probably recall that different colors of light have different energies. Purple has the highest energy (frequency) and the shortest wavelength. Red has the lowest. The colors of fire aren't different kinds of fire, it's just indicative of how hot that section of the fire is. Blue fire is the hottest. You can tell because it's throwing off blue light, one of the more energetic forms of light. Red and orange fire is actually the coolest. I believe those sections are about 400 degrees F and the blue is 600. but I'm not sure on those two figures.

A. the closer you are to the center of the flame, the hotter it is. so white would be the hottest, blue would be next, ect... this would also mean the reverse, the yellow/orange flame is the colder then the inner whites/blues.

A. A metal powder. Edit: you can also use metal compounds for these, common ones like sodium chloride etc. The guy above me got some of them, they are used in fireworks. Metals have electrons that are not held by the nucleus very well, and tend to lose them or lose them to a space further away from the nucleus. When fire gives the metal atom energy, the electron will jump to a higher energy level, and when it comes down it releases light. I tried to explain it in the simplest way.
