Question

Element a and b give three different compounds x,y and zealand with following ratio: weight of substance a at x is 0.5831g ,at y is 0.0180g and at z is 0.3600 and weight of substance b at x is 0.4200 go, at y is 0.0200 and at z is 0.5200.​

Answer 1

Answer:

This value is a whole number that is in account with law of multiple proportions.

Explanation:

• The law of constant proportion asserts that every constituent in a combination reacts in a defined proportion. It is not affected by the compound's origin or preparation location. Every compound is formed by combining components in a set mass ratio.
• If two components combine to generate more than one compound, the law of multiple proportions applies. When a predetermined amount of the first ingredient is taken, it reacts with the other element. Both of them will have a full number ratio. When hydrogen and oxygen mix, they produce a number of byproducts.
• If two elements form more than one compound between them, then the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers.
• Law of reciprocal proportions: If an element can be reacted with two different elements, then when those two different elements combine with each other, they do so in a fixed ratio.
• Now from studying the above three laws, we can say that the question given above is related to the law of multiple proportions. Because we are given two elements which combine with each other with different ratios.
• f two elements form more than one compound between them, then the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers.
• They say fixed mass of the first element. So choose an element and create a common mass between them all. Take Element A to be fixed for example. Then A in X and Y and Z should be equal. Find the common denominator between the 3 compounds and then find the porportions of B (dont forget to multiply the weight of B with whatever number you multiply the weight of A with)
• Then do the same while making B a fixed mass.
