Answer:

Heya Mate!

here's the answer your looking for! hope it helps you...plz mark me as the brainliest...it helps me alot...

Explanation:

Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 means that 1g of hydrogen gas requires 8g of oxygen gas to form water.

Formula of water(H2O)

Molecular Mass

Hydrogen 2 H = 2×1 = 2u

Oxygen 1 O = 1×16 = 16 u

So, the mass ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2(1):16 = 1:8 in water. This will be the same irrespective of the source or method of formation.
