Solution:
+naΔ sodium extract (NaCN) FeSO4FeCl3Prussion blueFe4[Fe(CN)6]3 +NaΔ sodium extract (NaCl)AgNo3 White Precipetate AgCl↓+NaNO3
Hydrozine, NH2⋅NH2 does not respond Lassaigne's test because it does not contain any carbon and hence, NaCN is not formed. Compound, NH2−S∣∣C−NH2
N and S, hence, it will give red colour in Lassaigne test.
