Question

Define the law of multiple proportions. explain it with two examples. how does this law point to the existance of atoms?

Answer 1

Meaning of law of different proportions. : an announcement in science: when two components combine in excess of one extent to shape at least two compounds the weights of one component that combine with a given weight of the other component are in the proportions of little entire numbers.

Make two oxide compounds utilizing a settled mass measure of carbon (C). A case of the law of numerous extents is carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\red{Answer :}$


$\huge\textbf{Law of Multiple Proportion :}$


When fixed mass of an element react with different amount of another same element then it bears a simple whole number ratio..
======================================

$\huge\textbf{Example :}$

$C$ + $\dfrac{1}{2}O_{2}$ ---> $CO$

Here,

$C$ = 12 gm

$\dfrac{1}{2}O_{2}$ = 16 gm

* $C$ + $O_{2}$ ---> $CO_{2}$

$C$ = 12 gm

$O_{2}$ = 32 gm

→ Ratio of $\dfrac{1}{2}O_{2}$ : $O_{2}$

= 16 : 32

= 1 : 2

2) $N$ + $O$ ---> $NO$

* $N$ + $O_{2}$ ---> $NO_{2}$

→ Ratio - 1 : 2
