Which salt produce colour on bunsen burner flame when (salt +HCl conc.) is applied on flame :-

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B, C
Solution:

CaCO₃ (B): Contains Ca²⁺ ions, which produce a characteristic brick-red flame.

CuSO₄ (C): Contains Cu²⁺ ions, which result in a distinct bluish-green flame.

Mg₃(BO₃)₂ (A): While magnesium itself doesn't color the flame, the borate (BO₃³⁻) ion produces a green flame.

NH₄Cl (D): Ammonium salts are volatile but do not impart any specific color to the flame.

Conclusion: Since A, B, and C all contain ions that color the flame, they are the correct choices.
