What color does sugar produce you n a flame test?

What are three examples of qualitative?
- test of chlorine in water - test of sodium in a mixture by flame test - test of hydrogen sulphide in a gas mixture
Why do you see colors in flame tests?
When an atom is in the flame, an electron in the outer shell of that atom receives energy from the flame and jumps up to a higher shell position. This electron then falls back to is original position and in doing so emits a photon of light of a specific energy. You see this light as a color. Atoms from different elements have different numbers of electrons in their electron shells so the photons emitted as these electrons jump back are all of different energy and therefore emit light of a different color. The color of the flame in the flame test therefore helps to identify the element in the flame producing the colored light.
What is a flame test?
Answer By exposing materials to a hot flame (from a Bunsen burner typically), the color of the flame can be used to identify the material. Certain elements give off a characteristic color when heated to high temperature. See the Related Links for "Wikipedia: flame test" to the bottom for the answer.

What happens when the test tube containing the green pigment is placed in boiling water?
It all depends on what is in the test tube and just what kind of green pigment.
