Which of Dalton's four principles support law of definite proportions?
Dalton\'s principle of compounds supports the law of definite proportions.
State the law of definite proportions?
The law of definite proportions states that all chemical compounds have constant proportions of their components.
The ratio in which atoms are blended together in compounds is shown by an?
By the law of definite proportions.
What you mean by nonstoichiometry?
The chemical composition of nonstoichiometric compounds do not respect the law of definite proportions.
What are non-stoichiometric defects?
Non stoichiometric compounds do not match to law of definite proportions.
Is it true that a chemical has a definite composition?
Yes, after the Law of definite proportions; but now it is clear that this law is not applicable to all known chemical compounds.
What is the law that states that a chemical compound always contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by w eight and mass?
Law of definite proportion, sometimes also called the law of constant composition.
When was the law of definite proportions developed?
The law of definite proportions was developed by Joseph Proust in 1806.
What law explains relationships between different chemical compounds that contain only the elements carbon and oxygen?
This is the law of definite proportions.
Is ratio of atoms is always the same in a compound?
Generally yes (the law of definite proportions); as exceptions - nonstoichiometric compounds.
Are the elements that make up a compound joined in a fixed proportion?
This is an old rule (Law of definite proportions) not valid for nonstoichiometric compounds.
What is an example of the law of definite proportions?
The Law of Multiple Proportions states that two or more compounds may be made from the same elements but each compound will obey the Law of Definite Proportions. Combining two elements to create another element can only be done with precise measurements of each element or another element would be created instead of the one intended.
