During the borax bead test with CuSO4{CuSO}_{4}, a blue green colour of the bead was observed in oxidising flame due to the formation of

Options

  1. ACu3B2{Cu}_{3}{B}_{2}
  2. BCuCu
  3. CCu{\left({BO}_{2}\right)}_{2}
  4. DCuOCuO

Correct answer

C. Cu{\left({BO}_{2}\right)}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

Blue green colour is due to formation of Cu(BO2)2Cu{\left({BO}_{2}\right)}_{2}. Copper gives blue green colour in borax bead test. Reactions which lead to formation of borax bead:

CuSO4⟶ΔCuO+SO3{CuSO}_{4}\overset{\Delta}{⟶}CuO + {SO}_{3}

CuO+B2O3→Cu(BO2)2CuO + {B}_{2}{O}_{3} \to Cu{\left({BO}_{2}\right)}_{2}
