Question

Two compounds A and B consist of tin and oxygen. Compound A contains 78.77% of tin and 21.23% of oxygen while compound B contains 88.12% of tin and 11.88% of oxygen. Show that these data illustrate the law of multiple proportions​

Answer 1

$\huge{\fcolorbox{cyan}{black}{\red{ANSWER:-}}}$

88.12×21.2311.88=157.47 parts by mass of tin. Thus, the ratio of the masses of tin which combine separately with fixed mass (21.33 parts) of oxygen to form the compounds A and B is given by =78.77:157.47=1:2 (approx) which is a siimple whole number ratio

Hope it helps..!!
