A worksheet designed to accompany a demonstration of flame tests of different ionic compounds. Students are provided with a reference chart of flame colours for different ions and asked to predict which ions were present in each compound based on the colour of the flame. A short introductory paragraph explains what is happening at the atomic level to produce the colours.
While this was originally designed for a chemistry lesson on the structure of ions and ionic compounds, I've also used flame tests in teaching outcome 5.24 of the Edexcel 9-1 Physics GCSE. Any excuse to break out the Bunsen burners and make fun colours. You could adapt this sheet to support a student-led practical.
Includes the worksheet with reference chart, which is designed to be printed double-sided on A4 or US Letter. PDF, Word and Pages format available, so everything can be adapted to your requirements.
