  3. C \(Cu \left( BO _2\right)_2\)
  4. D \(CuO\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(Cu \left( BO _2\right)_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Blue green colour is due to formation of \(Cu \left( BO _2\right)_2\) \(CuSO _4 \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} CuO + SO _3\) \(CuO + B _2 O _3 \rightarrow Cu \left( BO _2\right)_2\)
