Question

metal form II oxide 1 contains 46. 67% of the metal and another 6394 percent of the metal​

Answer 1

Answer:

The law of multiple proportion states that the masses of one element which combine with a fixed mass of the second element are in a ratio of whole numbers.

The two compounds of H and O have a hydrogen content of 5.93% and 11.2%.

Compound 1

Hydrogen mass = 5.93%

Oxygen mass = 100-5.93 = 94.07%

The number of parts of O that combine with H = 94.07/5.93 = 15.86 parts

Compound 2

Hydrogen mass = 11.2%

Oxygen mass = 100- 11.2 = 88.8%

The number of parts of O that combine with H = 88.8/11.2 = 7.9 parts

Ratio of the masses of O that combine with fixed mass of H = 15.86: 7.9 = 2:1

This is a whole number ratio as stated by Law of multiple proportion.
