Nitrogen, sulphur and halogens are tested from the sodium fusion extract of the organic compound which is commonly known as Lassaigne's extract. For preparing Lassaigen's extract, a small quanty of the organic compound is fused with sodium metal in a fusion tube. The red tube is broken in distilled water, boiled and filtered. This filtrate is known as Lassaigne's extract or sdodium fusion extract.
In the process of testing elements in Lassaigne's a test, which of the following reactions do not occur.

A

`Na + 2H_2O to 2NaOH + H_2`

B

`2Na + H_2 + O_2 to 2NaOH`

C

`Na + C + Nto NaCN`

D

`2Na + Sto Na_2S`
