    In sulphur detection of an organic compound, sodium nitropruside solution is added to sodium extract. Formation of violet colour is due to:

    A)  \[N{{a}_{3}}Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}\]

    B)  \[N{{a}_{3}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{5}}NOSNa]\]

    C)  \[N{{a}_{3}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{5}}NS]\]

    D)  \[Fe{{(CNS)}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     In sulphur detection of an organic compound, sodium nitropruside solution is added to sodium extract to produce violet colour due to the formation of \[N{{a}_{3}}[Fe(CN)NOSNa]\] sodium extract \[\underset{Sodium\text{ }nitropruside}{\mathop{N{{a}_{2}}S+N{{a}_{2}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{5}}NO]}}\,\] \[\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\underset{Violet\text{ }colour}{\mathop{N{{a}_{3}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{5}}NOSNa]}}\,\]
