The formulae of ammonium phosphomolybdate $(X)$ and the compound $(Y)$ responsible for Prussian blue colour are:

  • A
    $X: (NH_4)_3PO_4 \cdot 12MoO_3, Y: Fe_4[Fe(CN)_6]_3 \cdot xH_2O$
  • B
    $X: (NH_4)_3PO_3 \cdot 12MoO_3, Y: Fe_4[Fe(CN)_6]_3 \cdot xH_2O$
  • C
    $X: (NH_4)_2PO_3 \cdot 12MoO_3, Y: Fe_3[Fe(CN)_6]_2 \cdot xH_2O$
  • D
    $X: (NH_4)_3PO_4 \cdot 12MoO_3, Y: Fe_3[Fe(CN)_5]_2 \cdot xH_2O$

Discuss the chemistry of Lassaigne's test.

Which compound is responsible for the formation of a blue precipitate when ferric ions react with a Lassaigne's extract or potassium ferrocyanide solution?

Given below are two statements :
Statement $I$ : In Lassaigne's Test,when both nitrogen and sulphur are present in an organic compound,sodium thiocyanate is formed.
Statement $II$ : If both nitrogen and sulphur are present in an organic compound,then the excess of sodium used in sodium fusion will decompose the sodium thiocyanate formed to give $NaCN$ and $Na_{2}S$.
