explain the law of conservation of law of constant proportion
Answers
Answer:
The law of constant proportions states that chemical compounds are made up of elements that are present in a fixed ratio by mass. ... The law of constant proportions is often referred to as Proust's law or as the law of definite proportions.
➝ Law of conservation of mass :-The law of conservation of mass state that during a chemical reaction matter is neither create nor destroy.It means that mechanical reaction process the total mass of the product is equal to the total mass of reactant.
➝ law of constant proportion :- According to law of constant proportion, a chemical compound always consist of the same element combine together in the same proportion by mass or by volume.for example Ratio of H2o by mass will be 1:8 and ratio of H2o by volume will be 2:1.
- It was given by Joseph Proust in 1779.
- It is also called fixed propotion.
