Description
Law of Definite Proportions
A chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion by mass.
If two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with a fixed mass of the first element are simple whole numbers.
Mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Law of Multiple Proportions
A chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion by mass.
If two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with a fixed mass of the first element are simple whole numbers.
Mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Law of Conservation of Mass
A chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion by mass.
If two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with a fixed mass of the first element are simple whole numbers.
Mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Which of the following is NOT an example of the Law of Multiple Proportions?
*
CO and COâ‚‚ formation from C and Oâ‚‚
Hâ‚‚O and Hâ‚‚Oâ‚‚ formation from H and O
NaCl and KCl formation from Na, K, and Cl
Other

*
Law of Conservation of Mass
Law of Definite Proportions
Law of Multiple Proportions
