    Experiment 14 Plant
    Tissues
    PrinciplePrinciple of Identification of Volatile Elements Plant Tissue contains a large number of C, H, O, N, and a certain amount of S. At high temperatures, these elements are often emitted in a gaseous state, and when a certain
    -reagent
    is encountered, a specific reaction occurs, thus identifying their presence. In this experiment, the following reactions occurred by dry distillation of gases produced by dry distillation of plant leaves through lead acetate, molybric hydroxide solution and Neith reagents: 1. pb(Ac)
