    The document describes an experiment to identify the functional group in an unknown organic compound. Tests were conducted using litmus paper, sodium metal, and cerric ammonium nitrate. The litmus test showed no color change, while the sodium metal and cerric ammonium nitrate tests produced hydrogen gas and a pink/red precipitate, respectively. Based on the results, the compound was determined to contain an alcohol (-OH) functional group.
