Explanation:
us fix
of sulphur (S) as the fixed weight <br> In hydrogen sulphide
<br> Weight of sulphur
<br> Weight of hydrogen
<br>
of sulphur have combined have compound with hydrogen
<br>
sulphur has combined with hydrogen
<br> In sulphur dioxide
<br>
of sulphur have combined with oxygen
<br>
of sulphur has combined with oxygen
<br> Thus, the ratios by weight of hydrogen and oxygen combining with a fixed weight of sulphur in the two compounds is <br> or
(This ratio is not the same) <br> In water
<br> Weight of hydrogen
<br> Weight of oxygen
<br>
<br> Let us compare the ratios (i) and (ii). There are related to each other as : <br>
<br> Since these ratios are the simple whole number multiples of each other, the Law of Reciprocal Proportion is illustrated.
