The correct option is A.
The law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio irrespective of the source they are obtain from.
For instance, water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water can not be formed in any other way. Combining the oxygen and the hydrogen in another ratio will give us another thing not water.

We can use the ideal gas law equation to find the volume of the gas.
PV = nRT
P - pressure - 400 kPa
V - volume 
n - number of moles - 4.00 mol
R - universal gas constant  - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 300.0 K
substituting these values in the equation
400 000 Pa x V = 4.00 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 300.0 K 
V = 24.9 dm³
Volume is 24.9 dm³

What is the molarity of a solution composed
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

0.0845 M

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 4.27 grams of potassium iodide into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • Molar Mass of KI = 166 g/mol
  • 4.27 g ÷ 166 g/mol = 0.0257 mol

Now we <u>calculate the molarity of the solution</u>, using <em>the number of moles and the given volume</em>:

  • Molarity = moles / liters
  • Molarity = 0.0257 mol / 0.304 L = 0.0845 M

Calculate the ratio of the mass ratio of SS to OO in SOSO to the mass ratio of SS to OO in SO2SO2. Consider a sample of SOSO in
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The ratio of the mass ratio of S to O; in SO, to the mass ratio of S to O; in SO₂, is  2:1

Explanation:

According to the consideration, let us first find the ratio of S and O in both the compounds

For SO:

\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= \frac{32}{16}\\\\   \frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= 2

Let us express it as

SO_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }} = 2

For SO₂,

Due to two oxygen atoms in the molecule, the mass of oxygen will be taken two times

\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= \frac{32}{(2)(16)}\\\\   \frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= 1

Let us express it as

SO_2_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}= 1

Now, for the ratio of both the above-calculated ratios,

\frac{SO_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}}{SO_2_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}}=\frac{2}{1}

The required ratio is 2:1
