Vedclass · Answer

(A) The Lassaigne's test (sodium fusion test) is used to detect nitrogen in organic compounds. Benzene diazonium chloride $(C_6H_5N_2Cl)$ is unstable and decomposes upon heating to release $N_2$ gas before the fusion process is complete. Consequently,it does not give the characteristic Prussian blue color test for nitrogen. Therefore,both the Assertion and the Reason are correct,and the Reason is the correct explanation for the Assertion.

Assertion: Benzene diazonium chloride does not give a test for nitrogen.
Reason: Loss of $N_2$ gas takes place during heating.
