LAWS OF CHEMICAL, COMBINATION
Page 36 :
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS, Matter can neither be created nor, destroyed., , Eg: 12 g carbon combines with, 32 g oxygen to form 44 g CO2., Here the total mass of the, reactants is equal to the total, mass of the products., , Antoine Lavoisier
Page 37 :
LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTION, The same compound always contain the same, elements combined in the same fixed proportion by, mass., , Eg: NaCl may be obtained from sea water. It is, also prepared by chemical reactions between, NaOH and HCl. These samples on analysis are, found to contain Na and Cl in the ratio 23:35.5, , Joseph Proust, , by mass.
Page 38 :
LAW OF MULTIPLE PROPORTION, when two elements combines to form more than one, compound, the different masses of one of the elements, which combines with a fixed mass of the other element, are in the ratio of simple whole numbers., Eg: Carbon combines with oxygen to form two different, oxides CO and CO2 under different conditions. In CO2, 12, g of carbon combines with 32 g of oxygen and in carbon, monoxide 12 g carbon combines with 16g of oxygen. In, these two cases, the mass of oxygen combining with the, , John Dalton, , fixed mass of carbon are in the ratio 16:32 or 1:2.
