Uji Nyala Stronsium

Mengidentifikasi stronsium dari nyala api merah menyala

Flame Tests Beginner (Middle School) 15 menit ~$10,00

Tujuan

Amati nyala api merah menyala terang yang dihasilkan oleh ion stronsium, yang umum digunakan dalam kembang api merah dan suar darurat.

Latar Belakang

Strontium compounds produce a vivid scarlet-red flame when heated, with primary emission lines at 460.7 nm and 707.0 nm. This distinctive red is widely used in pyrotechnics for red fireworks, road flares, and military signal flares. Strontium's flame color is more brilliant and more orange-red compared to lithium's deeper crimson.

Peringatan Keselamatan

  • Wear safety goggles at all times
  • Keep hair tied back near open flames
  • Handle HCl with care
