Chemistry · Quantitative analysis (basic principles only): Estimation of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, halogens, sulphur and phosphorus
Carbon and hydrogen are estimated in organic compounds by:
Carbon and hydrogen are estimated in organic compounds by:
- A. Kjeldahl's method
- B. Duma's method
- C. Liebig's method
- D. Carius method
Step-by-step solution
Liebig's method is a combustion method used to estimate carbon and hydrogen in organic compounds by burning the sample and measuring the CO2 and H2O produced. Other methods: Kjeldahl's and Duma's are for nitrogen; Carius method is for halogens, sulphur, and phosphorus.
