Options
- Adefinite proportion
- Bmultiple proportion
- Creciprocal proportion
- Dgaseous volumes
Correct answer
D. gaseous volumes
Step-by-step solution
The volumes of the reacting gases and those of gaseous products bear the simple ratio. This is called the law of gaseous volumes or Gay-Lussac's law.
