Solution

The correct option is C Apple green
Potassium chromate solution is added to an aqueous solution of a metal chloride. The precipitates thus obtained are insoluble in acetic acid. These are subjected to flame test; the color of the flame is apple green.
Chromium formed in the borax-bead test in oxidizing flame is $C u {(B O_{2})}_{3}$ It gives green color in hot and cold oxidizing flame.
