Chemistry Compound colours

[Sharky]

Could anyone plz tell me which componds's colours need to be known fr the 'ol levl chem papr

Many are important, and well specially group1 and halides are important, transition metal compounds are always colored.
Well i think these are only important, do you need the colors :roll: ?

There's a table given in the chapter of Salts in the book of C.N.Prescott. It identifies some tests and resulting compound colours. Do that table and the one overleaf about gases. That would be ample.

@Zohaib: Sorry, but I couldn't find the table which tells us about the color of compounds. The tables are actually about test of Ions and Gases. :/
