Answer: definite proportions.
Explanation:
1) The definite proportions law states that compounds will always have the same kind of atoms (elements) in the same mass proportion (ratios).
2) For example, a molecule of water will alwys have the same mass ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms. That is what permits to obtain the chemical formula of the water molecule as H₂O.
The mass of the two hydrogen atoms will be in a fixed ratio respect to the mass of the oxygen atoms.
Then, if you have one reactant in less proportion than the other, respect to the ratio stated by the chemical formula of water, the former will react completely (it is the limiting reactant) with the corresponding (proportional) mass of the later. Then there will be an excess of the later reactant which will not react (will remain unchanged).
The reactants can only react in the proportion defined by the chemical formulas of the final products.
1. Determine if the ionic substances can break apart into ions.
- e.g. CaCO3 isn't very soluble, do it can't dissolve and dissociate. If it can't pop apart, no ions.
2. Swap the partners for all the other ions that you can get from step 1. You can skip pairings with the same charge - a + can't get close to another + to react.
3. Use solubility, acid/base, and redox rules to see if anything will happen with the ions in solution.<span />
