References Use the References to access important values if needed for this question. Two samples that are known to come from binary compounds of nitrogen (N) and oxygen (0) are analyzed. Sample A is found to contain 34.9 g of nitrogen and 39.9 g of oxygen. Sample B is found to contain 87.9 g of nitrogen and 201 g of oxygen. Do samples A and B obey the law of definite proportions, the law of multiple proportions, both laws, or neither law? Could A and B be samples of the same compound or are they different compounds?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Law of Definite Proportions : It states that in a given compound, the elemental components are in a fixed ratio.

This means that the elements that make up a compound are always in the same mass ratio. If the ratio changes, then the compound is considered as an entirely different compound.
