Detailed Solution

The flame test for sodium shows yellow colour. It is possible to distinguish Group 1 metal ions from chloride-based compounds using a flame test because their colours are volatile in non-luminous flames. The flame of sodium and potassium has a powerful, sustained yellow colour. Hence, the option D is correct.
