The detection and estimation of an element in a mixture is sometimes nearly impossible, if it is present in very minute traces or if it's chemical properties are very similar to those of other elements in the mixture. An effective technique is developed for these purposes is known as?
Correct answer: C. Activation Analysis
- A. Simple Analysis
- B. Spectral Analysis
- C. Activation Analysis
- D. Geometric Analysis
- E. Mechanical Analysis
Explanation
Activation analysis (AA) is an analytical method for determining the (stable isotope) concentration of trace elements in the bulk of a sample.
