Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.11P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason the development of separation techniques and methods of chemical analysis was necessary before the formulation of the laws of definite composition and multiple proportions is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Law of definite composition states that the composition of a particular compound is the same no matter what the source of the compound is. A compound has the same elements in the same proportion by mass.
Law of multiple proportion states that, if two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combines with a fixed mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers.
