A lila color, from potassium spectral lines.
Depending on the metal in the chloride (Na, Ca, Sr, Li, ....).
The precipitate formed from the reaction between silver nitrate and potassium chloride is white in color. This precipitate is silver chloride, which is insoluble in water and forms when the silver ions from silver nitrate react with chloride ions from potassium chloride.
Burning is otherwise known as combustion. When you combust a substance you react it with oxygen and yield water and carbon dioxide. So, when you burn Potassium Chloride you get -- KCl+O2--> H2O+CO2
Potassium chloride
The evidence that would lead you to believe that a residue was potassium chloride is it's white crystalline structure. When potassium chloride is mixed with water and the water evaporates, it leaves behind small potassium chloride crystals.
When flame tested, Sodium ions range from a yellow to a bright orange flame and Potassium ions give a lilac or light purple flame. Neither the Sulphate nor the Chloride ions should have emission spectra in the visible range.

The precipitate formed from the reaction between silver nitrate and potassium chloride is white in color. This precipitate is silver chloride, which is insoluble in water and forms when the silver ions from silver nitrate react with chloride ions from potassium chloride.
The final solution color will depend on the concentration of barium chloride and potassium chloride. However, in general, barium chloride is white and potassium chloride is colorless, so the final solution will likely appear white or colorless.
Color is determined by the respective cation: Potassium - lilac Sodium - yellow Lithium - red

Potassium burns with a purple flame.
Potassium ions are responsible for the characteristic violet color observed in flame tests. Both potassium oxide and potassium chloride contain potassium ions that emit the same color of light when heated in a flame due to the same electronic transitions in the potassium atoms.

No, potassium chloride contains potassium chloride.
