Qualitative analysis is carried out for _________________?

Correct answer: A. identification of elements

  • A. identification of elements
  • B. estimation of amounts of elements
  • C. molar ration of elements
  • D. molar volume of elements

Explanation

Qualitative analysis answers the question of what is present, so it is used to identify the elements or ions in a sample. It does not determine their amounts, ratios, or molar volume, which belong to quantitative analysis or calculation. The likely mistake is choosing b because analysis is generally associated with measurement, but qualitative analysis specifically concerns identity.
