49.         Flame photometry, more properly called flame atomic emission spectrometry, is a fast, simple, and sensitive analytical method for the determination of trace metal ions in solution. Because of the very narrow and characteristic emission lines from the gas-phase atoms in the flame plasma, the method is relatively free of interferences from other elements. Typical precision and accuracy for analysis of dilute aqueous solutions are about ±1-5% relative. The method is suitable for many metallic elements, especially for those metals which are easily excited to higher energy levels at flame temperature -- Na, K, Ca, Rb, Cs, Cu, Ba. Non-metals generally do not produce isolated neutral atoms in a flame, thus they are not suitable for determination by flame emission spectroscopy.
