The color of blue fire

Quick answer:

The color of blue fire can vary depending on the temperature and composition of the fire. Generally, blue flames are associated with higher temperatures and can appear as a bright, vibrant blue. However, the specific hue can range from a pale, almost white blue to a deeper, more intense blue. The color is due to the excitation and subsequent de-excitation of electrons in the flame's gas molecules, which emits light at specific wavelengths.
