Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The color of the flame for the compound sodium hydroxide is to be predicted and explained.
Concept introduction:
Different compounds produce different colors in a flame test. Flame test is done by heating a small sample of a compound in a flame such as a Bunsen burner. The color of the flame determines which atom is present in the compound.

Answer to Problem 4E
Sodium hydroxide will produce yellow - orange colored flame because sodium hydroxide has sodium as the metal component. Sodium metal produces yellow - orange colored flame.
Explanation of Solution
Each metal atom is associated with a specific flame color. A flame test can be used to confirm the presence of a particular atom in a compound. Color patterns with a flame test indicate the presence of a specific metal atom in a compound.
All sodium compounds burn with yellow - orange flame. Sodium hydroxide is also a sodium compound. So it will burn with a yellow - orange flame.
Color patterns with a flame test indicate the presence of a specific metal atom in a compound. In sodium hydroxide the metal is sodium which will burn with a yellow - orange flame.
