The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Formula / Definition}
\[ \text{Thiourea contains both } \mathrm{N} \text{ and } \mathrm{S} \]
Step 2: Calculation / Simplification}
Sodium fusion converts \(\mathrm{N}\) and \(\mathrm{S}\) to \(\mathrm{NaCNS}\) (thiocyanate).
\(\mathrm{NaCNS} + \mathrm{Fe^{3+}} \rightarrow [\mathrm{Fe(CNS)}]^{2+}\) (blood red colour).
