Question
Chapter 3.4, Problem 26SSC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The way the law of definite proportions applies to compounds is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The compound is made up of two or more than two elements in the same proportions by mass; where the mass of both elements participates to form compounded mass. The ratio is different for different compounds but the proportions by mass fixed.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 26SSC
The mass of compounds is determined by the law of definite proportion.
Explanation of Solution
A chemical compound is always made up of the fixed same proportion of elements by mass.
“The law of definite proportions” defines the mass composition of a substance.
For example: a sodium chloride compound is composed of one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine. So, there are fixed proportions of sodium and chlorine to form a compound (sodium chloride).
Conclusion
By applying the law of definite proportions, the compound formation is fixed in the ratio/ and fixed molecular formula.
