The Law of Definite Proportions says that a given chemical compound always contains the same proportion by mass of its constituent elements. This is NOT the same as saying that elements always combine in a specific ratio, because they can combine in different ratios in different compounds. An example of this might be copper oxide which can be CuO or Cu2O, showing a different ratio of copper to oxygen. So, the answer to the question, as asked, is no, elements do not always combine in specific ratios.
Elements combine in definite, but variable proportions, depending on their particular structure and isotope.
Yes, otherwise it would not be that elemnt
Some elements can have different isotopes.
See the link bellow for the Law of definite proportions. But be sure that this law is not generally valid.
From many years this affirmation is not considered valid.
No, compounds are formed.
Elements combine according to the electrons in their outer shell. These allow only certain combinations which form a ratio. Oxygen has 2 + in its outer shell. Hydrogen has 1 - in its outer shell. So the ratio is always 2:1.
Atoms of elements combine in fixed ratios will form compounds.
Elements are composed of discrete units called atoms.
John Dalton, the father of modern chemistry, said that atoms combine in simple whole-number rations to form compounds.
Elements combined in specific ratios form compounds.
No, compounds are formed.
In this mode different compounds are obtained.
Copper and magnesium are elements that were difficult for Mendeleev to add to his table because they were found to combine in various ratios with other elements.copper and manganese

The chemical elements present in monosaccharides are carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). These elements combine in specific ratios to form different types of monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose.
One of the best ways to describe John Dalton's observations of elements is that they are made of small particles. The atoms join in simple whole number ratios when the elements react.

They do combine in whole number ratios, but these ratios need not be simple - particularly in some organic compounds.
