The best method of determining sulphur in crude oil is by the _______________ method?
Correct answer: D. Bomb calorimeter
- A. Kjeldahl
- B. Dumas
- C. Junkers calorimeter
- D. Bomb calorimeter
Explanation
In the bomb method, the crude oil is completely burned in oxygen and the sulfur oxides formed are measured, allowing sulfur content to be calculated. Kjeldahl and Dumas methods are mainly associated with nitrogen determination, not sulfur.
