According to law of definite proportion:

In a compound, elements are always arranged in fixed ratio by mass.

Here, sample 1 has 23.22 g Carbon and 32.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{24.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 2 mol

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{32 g}{16 g/mol}=2 mol

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=2:2=1:1

Therefore, formula of compound will be CO.

Sample 2:

It has 36.22 g Carbon and 48.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{36.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 3 mol

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{48 g}{16 g/mol}=3 mol

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=3:3=1:1

The formula of compound will be CO.

Therefore, it is proved that carbon and oxygen are present in fixed ratios in both the samples.

If a 28.0 L balloon with a temperature of
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

5.6 L

Explanation:

We can apply Charles' Law here since our pressure is constant (will not change inside the refrigerator) and we are relating change in volume with change in temperature:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ where V₁ and T₁ are initial volume and temperature, and V₂ and T₂ are final volume and temperature. Let's plug in what we know and solve for the unknown:

28.0 L / 25 °C = V₂ / 5 °C => V₂ = 5.6 L

5.6 L is our new volume (at 5 °C).

Find the volume of a box with length 25 cm, height 25 cm and width 1.0 m. Volume
mariarad [96]

The volume of a box with length 25 cm, height 25 cm and width 1.0 m is 0.0625m³.

Volume of the box which is a cuboid can be calculated by multiplying the length, breadth and height of the given box.

Volume of the box is given by the product of the length of the box, Height of the box and Breadth or width of the box.

Since, the box is a cuboid, hence the formula is given by the products of length, breadth and height.

Given,

length of the box= 25cm = 0.25m

Height of the box =25cm = 0.25m

width of the box= 1m

Volume = length × width × height of box

Volume = 0.25 × 0.25 × 1

Volume = 0.0625m³

The volume of the box is 0.0625m³.
