The combining ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in water and hydrogen peroxide are 1: 8 and 1: 16. Which law is illustrated in this example?

Options

  1. ALaw of definite proportions
  2. BLaw of conservation of mass
  3. CGay Lussac’s law of combining volumes of gases
  4. DLaw of multiple proportions

Correct answer

D. Law of multiple proportions

Step-by-step solution

The combining ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in water and hydrogen peroxide are 1: 8 and 1: 16. It is an example of law of multiple proportions. According to this law, if two elements combine together to form several compounds then weight of one of these elements, which combines with a fixed weight of the other, are in ratio of simple whole numbers.
