The Law of Definite Proportions (or Proust's Law) states that in a single chemical compound (such as H2O or CO) the ratio of it's component elements is a fixed whole number ratio.


The Law of multiple proportions applies when two or more elements/compounds have multiple ways of combining into different compounds.

Suppose the gas packed in a champagne bottle is manipulated such that the total pressure of the gas is 760 mm Hg, with a PCO2 of
Valentin [98]

We expect the release of PCO2 from the bottle, When the cork is pulled.

<h3>What do you expect to happen?</h3>

When the cork is pulled, we expect the release of PCO2 in the atmosphere to happen because there is high concentration of PCO2 in the bottle but there is no concentration of PCO2 in the atmosphere so due to diffusion, the PCO2 gas moves outside the bottle.

So we can conclude that When the cork is pulled, the release of PCO2 from the bottle will be expected.
