Homework: READ Up In Flames Background Information.Using your textbook pages R 2 -R9 and The Dynamic Periodic Table linked to your "Resources" page on the website, research the color of the flame and the line spectrum for Calcium, Sodium, Lithium, Strontium, Barium, Copper, and Potassium. To use the Dynamic Periodic Table, click on the element in the periodic table that you are interested in. Then hover over "Wikipedia" on the upper left of the screen. From the drop down menue, click on "WebElements" The line emission spectra is displayed across the top of the page. Fill in the Data Table with your findings. For the line spectrums, record the approximate number of lines in each color range using the notation "one", "few", or "many". Do not try to count all of the lines - just estimate.
