The correct Answer is:
To determine which salt imparts a brick red color to the Bunsen flame, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Question The question asks which salt imparts a brick red color to a Bunsen flame. We have four options: calcium salts, strontium salts, sodium salts, and cobalt salts. ### Step 2: Identify the Color Associated with Each Salt - **Calcium salts**: Known to produce a brick red color in a flame test. - **Strontium salts**: Typically produce a bright red color, but not brick red. - **Sodium salts**: Produce a bright yellow color. - **Cobalt salts**: Produce a blue color. ### Step 3: Analyze the Options From the information gathered: - The brick red color is specifically associated with calcium salts. - Strontium, sodium, and cobalt salts do not produce a brick red color. ### Step 4: Conclusion Based on the analysis, the salt that imparts a brick red color to the Bunsen flame is calcium salts. ### Final Answer The correct answer is **A: Calcium salts**. ---
