A flame test is an analytic procedure used in chemistry to detect the presence of certain elements, primarily metal ions, based on each element's characteristic emission spectrum.lthough the flame test only gives qualitative information, not quantitative data about the proportion of elements in the sample, quantitative data can be obtained by the related techniques of flame photometry or flame emission spectroscopy. Flame Atomic absorption spectroscopy Instruments, made by e.g.
C. Test for Potassium Ion. Like sodium, potassium is detected with a flame test. To a clean test tube add 2mL of potassium chloride solution. Add 3 drops of 6 M hydrochloric acid to the tube and shake to mix. Clean your flame test wire, dip it into the test tube, and insert it in a hot burner flame. Record your results.
