1.	Two elements, A and B, combine to form a compound in which ‘a’ g of A combines with ‘b₁’ and ‘b₂’ g of B respectively. According to law of multiple proportion _______. (A) b₁ = b₂ (B) b₁ and b₂ bear a simple whole number ratio (C) a is always equal to b₁ (D) no relation exists between b₁ and b₂
Answer» udent,◆ Answer -(B) b₁ and b₂ bear a simple whole number RATIO● LAW of multiple proportions -It STATES that when two elements combine with each other to form more than one compound, the WEIGHTS of one element that combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a ratio of small whole numbers.For example, in CO 16 g of O combines with 12 g C & in CO2 32 g of O combines with 12 g C. Ratio of O combining with fix weight of C in CO and CO2 is 1:2 respectively.Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
