This law was proposed by Dalton in 1803 . According to this law , if two elements combune to form more than one compounds ,the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element, are in the ratio of small whole number. For exemple, hydrogen combines with oxygen to form two compounds ,namely, water and hydrogen peroxide. Here, the masses of oxygen (i.e, 16g and 32g) which combine with a fixed mass of hydrogen (2g) bear a simple raio, i.e, 16 :32 or 1 :2 . An element forms two oxides .In one oxide ,one gram of the oxide containd 0.5g of the element. In another oxide, 4g of the oxide contains 0.8g of the element . Show that these data confirm the law of multiple proportion.
