Question


A pure sample of ammonia contains 28 g of nitrogen and 3 grams of hydrogen. A second sample of pure ammonia contains 56 g nitrogen and 6 g of hydrogen. This is an example of the:

  1. Law of conversation of mass
  2. Law of multiple proportion
  3. Law of constant proportion
  4. Law of reciprocal proportion

hintHint:

One molecule has 28g nitrogen and 3 g hydrogen. Two molecules will have the double have both. So if nitrogen increases hydrogen will also increase.

The correct answer is: Law of constant proportion


    • The law of constant proportions states that a compound is composed of a constant mass proportion of elements. This means that regardless of the source, a pure sample of a compound will always consist of the same elements present in the same mass ratios.
    • The law of definite proportions is often called Proust's law or the law of definite proportions.
