Blue is what number on the resistor color code?
A
1
B
4
C
2
D
6
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A 6 band resistor is essentially a 5 band resistor with an extra ring that denotes the temperature coefficient or sometimes, the failure rate. The most common color for the sixth band is brown (100 ppm/K), which means that for every 10℃ change in temperature, the resistance value changes by 0.1%.

Detailed explanation-2: -Blue normally “metal film resistor”-tolerance less than 1%; beige-coloured are “carbon film” resistors-tolerance 5%; green or white are wire-wound resistors; Some manufacturers use beige-coloured body for “Standard Film” resistors.
