Due to the presence of transition metal ions i.e. Chromium(VI) ions
The color of barium in flame is pale green.
Aqueous barium nitrate is colorless.
Barium chloride typically appears as a white crystalline solid.
Dichromate can distinguish between alkanes and alkenes due to the presence of a double bond in alkenes, which can undergo oxidation. When treated with dichromate in an acidic medium, alkenes are oxidized, leading to a color change from orange to green as the dichromate is reduced to chromium(III) ions. In contrast, alkanes do not react with dichromate under similar conditions, so the color remains unchanged. Thus, this reaction can serve as a qualitative test to differentiate between the two classes of compounds.
Barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)₂, does not produce a distinct flame color when burned, as it is typically not used in flame tests. However, when barium compounds are tested, they usually produce a green flame. The characteristic green color is primarily associated with barium salts, such as barium chloride, rather than barium hydroxide itself.
It's name is "barium dichromate". Some people also use the antiquated (and wrong) term "bichromate", which should no longer be used. (See also the provided link.)
I think the reaction equation can be written as follows: K2Cr2O7 (aq) + BaCl2(aq) ------ BaCr2O7(s) + 2KCl(aq).
K2Cr2O7 is potassium dichromate, a commonly used oxidizing agent in chemical laboratories. It is orange in color and is soluble in water.
The color of barium in flame is pale green.
The flame of barium nitrate typically produces a pale green color when burned. This green color is a characteristic flame test color for barium compounds.
Aqueous barium nitrate is colorless.

The orange color of potassium dichromate is caused by the movement of an electron to a vacant d-orbital in the manganese atom. The transition occurs when the chemical is in the presence of light. This is confirmed by the empty 3d-orbital in chromium.

The compound BaSO4 is known as barium sulfate. Because of its white color, it is sometimes used for pigmentation, especially in paper.
