Hydrazine does not give Lassaigne's test...

Hydrazine does not give Lassaigne's test for nitrogen. Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Hydrazine `(NH_(2)-NH_(2))` does not contain any carbon. Therefore, upon fusing with sodium metal, it does not form any sodium cyanide `(NaCN)` which is the primary requirement for the Lassaigne's test.

    Which compound does not give positive test in Lassaigne's test for nitrogen ?

    During the detection of elements by Lassaigne's test, the covalent compounds are converted into ionic compounds by fusion with metallic sodium. The nitrogen, sulphur and halogens present in the organic compound are converted into cyanides, sulphides and halides respectively which are then detected by their usual tests.
