Actually the question is quite broad; there are no indications of the kind of excitation sources used. Assuming we are talking about using flame emission, I think Na^+, K^+, and Ba^2+ leads to closed shells (noble gas structure)and that makes me think Ca^+ is the only one with an electron that could be moved easily to an outer shell.
