Kjeldahl's method is primarily used to estimate nitrogen content in organic compounds, particularly those that can be converted into ammonia (NH₃). Let's analyze the compounds:

A. C₆H₅NH₂ (aniline) - This compound contains nitrogen and can be estimated using Kjeldahl's method.

B. NH₂−CO−NH₂ (urea) - This compound is a typical example used in Kjeldahl's method for nitrogen estimation.

C. C₆H₅NO₂ (nitrobenzene) - This compound contains nitrogen but cannot be estimated using Kjeldahl's method because it does not readily convert to ammonia.

D. CH₃CH₂−C≡N (propionitrile) - This compound contains nitrogen and can be estimated using Kjeldahl's method.

So, the correct answer is C. C₆H₅NO₂.
