### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Lassaigne's Test**: Lassaigne's test is a qualitative analysis method used to detect the presence of certain elements (like nitrogen, sulfur, and halogens) in organic compounds. The test involves fusing the organic compound with sodium metal and then extracting the resulting sodium salts in water. 2. **Performing the Test**: When the organic compound is fused with sodium, it can form sodium thiocyanate (NaSCN) if sulfur and nitrogen are present in the compound. 3. **Observation of Coloration**: If a blood red coloration is observed during the test, it indicates a specific reaction. The formation of sodium thiocyanate leads to the formation of iron(III) thiocyanate when a few drops of iron(III) chloride solution are added. ...
