Question
A given white crystalline salt was tested as follows:
A flame test on the salt gave a persistent golden-yellow colourisation. What conclusions can be drawn for the observation?

Solution
The flame test of the salt gives persistent golden yellow colourisation which suggests the presence of Na+ ion.
