What is the ratio of atoms in carbon dixide?
A chemical formula shows the elements in the compound and the ratio of atoms. For example, the chemicals formula for carbon dioxide is CO2 . In the carbon dioxide, there are always two oxygen atoms to every one carbon atom.
Why is the ratio of a different atoms in a compound important?
The ratio of different atoms in a compound important because the compound has to achieve an equilibrium in terms of electrical charge. The net total of charges of the atoms forming a compound must be zero.

Contains two or more elements in a fixed ratio?
A chemical compound that has a set number of atoms for each element. E.g. water H2O has the fixed ratio of 2:1, that is 2 hydrogen atoms to 1 oxygen atom, carbon dioxide CO2 has a fixed ratio of 1:2 (1 carbon atom to 2 oxygen atoms). It has to be fixed as if it isn't it makes a new compound/chemical.
