EASY

The formula of the purple colour formed in Lassaigne's test for sulphur using sodium nitroprusside is

HARD
Match the organic compounds in column - I with the Lassaigne's test result in column - II appropriately:
 
  Column – I   Column - II
A. Aniline i. Red colour with FeCl3
B. Benzene sulfonic acid ii. Violet color with sodium nitroprusside
C. Thiourea iii. Blue color with and acidic solution of FeSO4
MEDIUM

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : In 'Lassaigne's Test', when both nitrogen and sulphur are present in an organic compound, sodium thiocyanate is formed.

Statement II : If both nitrogen and sulphur are present in an organic compound, then the excess of sodium used in sodium fusion will decompose the sodium thiocyanate formed to give NaCN and Na2S.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

In the detection of nitrogen of an organic compound by Lassaigne's test, a prussian blue colour is obtained. This is due to the formation of which of the following complexes?
EASY
The correct match between item I and item II is
 
Item I (Compound) Item II (Reagent)
a. Lysine p. 1-naphthol
b. Furfural q. Ninhydrin

Compound that will give positive Lassaigne's test for both nitrogen and halogen is
EASY
Sodium extract is heated with concentrated HNO3 before testing for halogens because :
EASY
In Lassaigne's test for halogens, it is necessary to remove 'X' and 'Y' from the sodium fusion extract, if nitrogen and Sulphur are present. This is done by boiling the extract with 'Z'. Identify X, Y and Z.
