As we learnt ,

 

Lassaigne's Test for Nitrogen -

Lassaigne's solution + FeSO+ dil H2SO-----------> Prussian blue color indicates the presence of nitrogen

- wherein

N-Present

 

 When we do the Lassaigne test for Nitrogen , following reactions takes place :

FeSO4 + NaOH \rightarrow Fe(OH)2 + Na2SO4

6 NaCN + Fe(OH)2 \rightarrow Na4[Fe(CN)6]

3 Na4[Fe(CN)6] + 4 FeCl3 \rightarrow Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3 + 12 NaCl

                                                Ferric ferrocyanide

                                                 ( Prussian blue)

 


Option 1)

Fe_{4}\left [ Fe(CN)_{6} \right ]_{3}\;

Option 2)

\; \; Na_{3}\left [ Fe(CN)_{6} \right ]\; \;

Option 3)

\;Fe(CN)_{3} \; \;

Option 4)

\;Na_{4}\left [ Fe(CN)_{5} \right NOS
