Detailed Solution

The brown ring test for NO2 and NO3 is due to the formation of complex,  [Fe(H2O)5NO2+ The procedure used to detect the presence of nitrate radicals is known as the Brown ring test.

For this, an equivalent amount of freshly made FeSO4is combined with the sample solution. Along the test tube's sides, concentrated H2SO4 is added to the mixture. The two liquids will mix, forming a brown ring.

This substance is nitro so Ferrous Sulphate FeSO4NOFerrous is converted into ferric by nitric acid (nitrate), which is then converted into nitrogen monoxide (NO). The brown ring is the result of this reaction with FeSO4.
