Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Solution:

$( a \rightarrow r )$ Diazonium salts do not give positive test for $N$, because on heating they decompose before combining with Na to form $CN ^{\ominus}$ ion, which is a necessary condition for $n$ - test
On the other hand, it gives the test for $Br ^{\ominus}$ ion (organic layer test)
(b $\rightarrow s$ ) It contains $C$ and $S$, so it gives nitroprusside test. $\left[ Fe ( CN )_5 NO \right]^{-2}$, is nitrorpuside ion
$( c \rightarrow q , r )$ It contain $C$ and $N$, so it gives (positive) test for $N$ and the test for $Br ^{\ominus}$
$( d \rightarrow p )$ It contains $C$ and $N$, so it gives positive test for $N$ and also gives test for $I ^{\ominus}$ (but that is not given in the equation)
