Solution

The correct option is B white
Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is white in colour.

Colour of some common salts:
  • Sodium chloride (NaCl) - White
  • Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) - White
  • Copper sulfate (CuSO4.5H2O) - Blue
  • Ferrous sulfate (FeSO4.7H2O) - Green
Note: The colour of copper sulfate and ferrous sulfate is due to water of crystallization present in them. Anhydrous form of both the salts is white.
