If you soaked the pickle for a long time in a different salt solution, such as strontium chloride, would you still observe 589-nm light emission?

The total number of protons in the nucleus of strontium is different than that of the Sodium ion. This results in the electrons in the orbits to posses different energy due to the difference in electrostatic  bonding between the electrons.

Due to the difference in the energy between these electrons ,the emitted/absorbed light would be at a different radiation,wavelength and colour.

The emission of light will not be observed if the pickle is soaked in a different salt solution, such as strontium chloride.

Further explanation:

Electronic transition:

It is a process that occurs when an electron undergoes emission or absorption from one energy level to another energy level.

When an electron undergoes a transition from a lower energy level to a higher energy level then it requires energy to complete the process. This transition is an absorption process.

When an electron undergoes a transition from higher energy level to lower energy level then it emits energy to complete the process. This transition is an emission process.

The ground state of an atom is the lowest energy state whereas the excited state has energy greater than that of the ground state.

The emission of light occurs only when there is an energy difference between the ground state and the excited state of the atom. The energy difference will be different in both sodium chloride and strontium chloride. In the case of sodium chloride (NaCl), light emission is observed at 589 nm. But this emission cannot be observed at the same wavelength in case of strontium chloride.
