Question
Give reason: Dalton’s atomic theory explains the law of multiple proportion.
✓
Answer
- The law of multiple proportion states that, “When two elements A and B form more than one compounds, the masses of element B that combine with a given mass of A are always in the ratio of small whole numbers
- According to Dalton’s atomic theory, compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine in fixed ratio.
