Solution

A reagent that can detect any of ${C u}^{2 +}, {F e}^{3 +}, {Z n}^{2 +}$ and ${C d}^{2 +}$ is potassium ferrocyanide $K_{4} [{F e (C N)}_{6}]$ .
Fe(III) ions give deep blue colour with potassium ferrocyanide.
$3 K_{4} [F e (C N)_{6}] + 4 F e C l_{3} \to F e_{4} [F e (C N)_{6}]_{3} p u r s s i a n, s b l u + 12 K C l$
Potassium ferrocyanide reacts with Zn(II) ions to form bluish white precipitate of $Z n_{2} [F e (C N)_{6}]$ .
Potassium ferrocyanide reacts with Cd(II) ions to form bluish white precipitate of $C d_{2} [F e (C N)_{6}]$ .
Potassium ferrocyanide reacts with Cu(II) ions to form reddish brown precipitate of $C u_{2} [F e (C N)_{6}$
