What are the five laws of chemical combination?

Law of conservation of mass: Mass is conserved in a chemical reaction. Law of definite proportions: Chemical compounds always contain the same elements in the same proportion by mass. Law of multiple proportions: When two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element can be expressed in small whole numbers. Law of combining volumes: Gases react in simple numerical ratios of volumes. Avogadro's law: Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.
