Explain the rason for the fusion of an organic compound with metallic sodium for testing nitrogen, sulphur and halogens |
| Answer» The elements like `N,S,P` or halogens in the organic compounds are presents in the form of covalent bond and therefore they are converted into ionic species (e.g. `Coverset(o-)N,S^(2-),PO_4^(3-)`, and `X^(o-)` ions) by fusing with Na. these ionic species can be easily detected by ionic reaction. | |
