    Lassaigne's test for the detection of nitrogen fails in

    A) \[N{{H}_{2}}\,CONHN{{H}_{2}}\,.HCl\]

    B) \[N{{H}_{2}}N{{H}_{2}}.HCl\]

    C) \[N{{H}_{2}}CON{{H}_{\text{2}}}\]

    D) \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}NHN{{H}_{2}}.\,HCl\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Hydrazine \[(N{{H}_{2}}N{{H}_{2}})\] does not contain carbon and hence on fusion with Na metal, it cannot form NaCN; consequently hydrazine does not show Lassaigne's test for nitrogen.
