Step-by-step explanation

In this problem, we are matching chemical compounds with their corresponding color. Let's go over each one :

A. - Magnesium ammonium phosphate is white in color, so A matches with II.

B. - Potassium hexanitritocobaltate(III) is a yellow complex, so B matches with III.

C. - Manganese hydroxide is brown in color, so C matches with I.

D. - Prussian blue or Ferric ferrocyanide is deep blue in color, so D matches with IV.

So, the correct option is Option B: A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV.
