Two elements A and B combine to form two compounds in which a g of A combines with `b_(a) and b_(2)` g of B, respectively. According to the law of multiple proportions

A

`b _(1) = b _(2)`

B

`b_(1) and b_(2)` bear a simple whole number ratio

C

`b _(1) and b_(2)` bear whole number ratio

D

no relation exists between `b_(1) and b_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
According to law of multiple proportions, When two elements combine to form two or more compounds, the weights of one of elements which combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a simple whole number ratio. So, here,` b_(1) and b_(2)` bear a simple whole number ratio.
