Elements X and Y combine to form three different compounds: 0.3 g of X combines with 0.4 g of Y to form 0.7 g of
compound A. 18 g of X combines with 48 g of Y to form 66 g of compound B. 40 g of X combines with 159.99 g of Y
to form 199.99 g of compound C. Show that the data illustrates the law of multiple proportions.

Dear friend
Please find the solution to the asked query:
a)0.3 g of A + 0.4 g of B →0.7 g of compound X
Mass ratio for compound X = 0.4g of B0.3 g ofA=1.33
b)18.0g of A + 48.0 g of B → 66.0g of compound Y
Mass ratio for compound Y = 48g of B18g ofA=2.66
c) 40g of A + 159.99g of B →199.99 g of compound Z
Mass ratio of compound Z =159.99 g of B40g ofA=3.99
mass ratios of the compounds are1.33 : 2.66 : 3.99
1: 2 : 3
These data are in consistence with the law of multiple proportions as the law of multiple proportions states that the mass of A which is added to fixed mass of B , can be expressed as a ratio of small whole numbers.
