0.5g of an organic compound on Kjeldahl’s analysis gave enough ammonia to just neutralise 10 cm3 of 1M H2SO4. The % of N in the compound is:
The correct option is A. 56
According Kjeldahl’s analysis the % of nitrogen formula is
%ofN=1.4×Molarity×Volume×BasicityofacidMassofsubstancetaken
%ofN=1.4×1×10×20.5=56
The percentage of nitrogen is 56%
