What do you exactly mean by "quantify"? There are so many methods of quantification of molecules. Be specific Also, by XRD, do you mean x-ray diffraction? Questions must be posed well and clearly in order for others to answer them.
Hello, I agree, XRD using Rietveld refinements will tell you the percentages of all crystals phases present in the powder samples analysed by the XRD. e.g. 67% of Calcite, 22% of aragonite, 7% of feldspar, etc. However, it can only detect the crystalline structures. You could use FTIR/Raman to detect some of the other organic compounds in the samples and perhaps correlate the results with the XRD percentages.
