Detection of Nitrogen in an Organic Compound
By Robolab Technologies In Atal Tinkering Labs ATL, More InfoThere are many organic compounds such as amines, amides, nitro compounds, urea etc contains nitrogen as one of the main elements. Nitrogen is covalently bonded to the organic compound. Upon fusion with sodium metal, the covalently bonded nitrogen is converted to ionic sodium cyanide, which can be extracted by boiling the fused mass with distilled water and is used for the detection of nitrogen.
This video explains how to detect the presence of nitrogen in an organic compound.
