Question

Sulphur form two gaseous Oxicles. One of these oxides Contain 50%
sulphus while the other contain 40% of sulphur. show that these
dato illustrate the law of Multiple proportions.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The masses of oxygen and sulphur which combine with part of carbon are in the ratio of 2.667:5.25,i.e, 1:2, In sulphur dioxide, the masses of sulphur and oxygen are in the ratio of 1:1 which is a simple multiple of first. Hence, law of reciprocal proportions is illustrated.
