Given below are two statements : Statement (I) : Kjeldahl method is applicable to estimate nitrogen in pyridine. Statement (II) : The nitrogen present in pyridine can easily be converted into ammonium sulphate in Kjeldahl method. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Options
- ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
- BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
- CStatement I is false but Statement II is true
- DStatement I is true but Statement II is false
