Three oxides of lead on analysis were found to contain lead as under:
(i) 3.45 g of yellow oxide contains 3.21 g of lead.
(ii) 1.195 g of brown oxide contains 1.035 g of lead.
(iii) 1.77 g of red oxide contains 1.61 g of lead. Show that these data illustrate law of multiple proportions.

To demonstrate that the data provided illustrates the law of multiple proportions, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the mass of oxygen in each oxide 1. **Yellow Oxide**: - Mass of yellow oxide = 3.45 g - Mass of lead = 3.21 g - Mass of oxygen = Mass of yellow oxide - Mass of lead - Mass of oxygen = 3.45 g - 3.21 g = **0.24 g** ...

A metal forms two oxides. The higher oxide contains 80 % metal. 0.72 g of the lower oxide have 0.8 g of higher oxide when oxidised. Show that the data illustrates the law of Multiple Proportions.

Two oxide samples of lead were heated in the current of hydrogen and were reduced to the metallic lead. The following data were obtained (i) Weight of yellow oxide taken = 3.45 gm, Loss in weight in reduction = 0.24 gm (ii) Weight of brown oxide taken = 1.227 gm, Loss in weight in reduction = 0.16 gm. Show that the data illustrates the law of multiple proportion.
