 Detection of Special Elements (Nitrogen, Sulphur & Halogens) by Lassaigne's Test Preparations of sodium fusion extract (SFE)

 Place a small piece of freshly cut dry sodium in a dry sodium fusion tube and melted to a shining globule. Introduce 2drops of 0.1g of the given substance. Heat the tube gently in the beginning and then strongly to red heat for 1-2minutes. Then plunge the red-hot tube into about 10ml distilled water taken in a mortar. Grind the mixture and filter. The colorless filtrate is called stock solution.

Test for nitrogen, sulphur and halogens are carried out with the stock solution:  
 
Experiment Observation Inference
Test for Nitrogen:
2ml of stock solution+few crystals (0.1-0.2g) of ferrous sulphate, boil gently, cool, acidify with dill H2SO4 till the solution is clear, add neutral FeCl3

Blue Or Green Colour
Nitrogen Present
Test for Sulphur:
a)2ml of stock solution+ 2-3 drops of freshly prepared sodium nitropusside solution+ 1drop of dil NaOH
b) 2ml of stock solution +2-3 drops of lead acetate solution+ 1drop of acetic acid
No purple colour





No brown/Black colour




Sulphur Absent
Test for Halogens:
(Cl, Br&I)
1ml of stock solution +1ml of dil HNO₃ boil well, Cool and then add 10% AgNO3 solution
No Precipitate
Halogen Absent
