Photographic Print : Flame tests
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Flame tests
Three ceramic dishes each containing burning ethanol. Each dish has a different colour flame due to chemicals that have been added to the ethanol. Here they are (left to right): strontium nitrate (red), sodium chloride (yellow) and boric acid (green). The colour of the flame is different for different elements and can be used to identify unknown substances

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of flame tests in a laboratory setting. Three ceramic dishes, each containing burning ethanol, take center stage against a striking black background. The addition of different chemicals to the ethanol creates a stunning array of vibrant colors within the flames. From left to right, we witness the distinctive characteristics of three elements: strontium nitrate (red), sodium chloride (yellow), and boric acid (green). These unique colors serve as identifying markers for unknown substances, making flame tests an invaluable tool in scientific exploration. The image perfectly captures the essence of chemistry at play - combustion transformed into artistry. With no human presence in sight, it invites us to marvel at nature's hidden secrets revealed through chemical reactions. This visual spectacle serves as a reminder that science education is not only informative but also visually captivating. As part of Science Photo Library's extensive collection, this print offers an educational resource for students and enthusiasts alike. It highlights the importance of understanding how different elements produce distinct colored flames due to their characteristic ions. In this trio of ceramic dishes filled with ethereal hues, we are reminded once again that even fire can be harnessed by science to unlock mysteries and identify substances lurking beneath their colorful veils.
