Statement II : The green colour observed is due to the formation of copper(I) metaborate In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Boric acid in solid, whereas is gas at room temperature because of
During the borax bead test with , a blue green colour of the bead was observed in oxidising flame due to the formation of
When borax is heated with on a platinum loop, blue coloured bead formed is largely due to
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason .
Assertion : Boric acid is a weak acid
Reason : Boric acid is not able to release ion on its own. It receives ion from water and releases ion.
