Assertion : `NH_(2)=overset(S)overset(||)(C)-NH_(2)` gives red colour in Lassaigne's test.
Reason : Compounds having N along with C give red colour in Lassaigne's test for nitrogen.

A

If both assertion and Reason are true, and reason is the true explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the true explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true, but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that the compound \( \text{NH}_2=\overset{S}{\overset{||}{\text{C}}}-\text{NH}_2 \) gives a red color in Lassaigne's test. ### Step 2: Understand Lassaigne's Test Lassaigne's test is a qualitative analysis method used to detect the presence of nitrogen, sulfur, and halogens in organic compounds. The test involves fusing the organic compound with sodium metal to form sodium extract. ### Step 3: Analyze the Components of the Compound The compound \( \text{NH}_2=\overset{S}{\overset{||}{\text{C}}}-\text{NH}_2 \) contains: - Nitrogen (N) - Carbon (C) - Sulfur (S) ### Step 4: Determine the Color Reaction In Lassaigne's test, if nitrogen is present along with carbon and sulfur, the test will yield a red color due to the formation of a complex with the sodium extract. ### Step 5: Evaluate the Reason The reason states that compounds having nitrogen along with carbon give a red color in Lassaigne's test for nitrogen. This is indeed true, as the presence of nitrogen in the compound contributes to the color change observed in the test. ### Conclusion Both the assertion and the reason are correct. The assertion is true because the compound does give a red color in Lassaigne's test, and the reason is also true as it correctly explains why the color change occurs. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and reason are correct. ---
