Answer:
Well, we may simply write out his Gas law....
Explanation:
"The ratio between the volumes of the reactant gases and the"The ratio between the volumes of the reactant gases and the "gaseous products can be expressed in simple whole numbers."gaseous products can be expressed in simple whole numbers. Now we have got to drill down on this definition...let us consider the formation of
"gaseous water:"gaseous water: H_2(g) +1/2O_2(g)rarrH_2O(g)H2(g)+12O2(g)→H2O(g) ...here the ratioH_2:O_2:H_2OH2:O2:H2O -=≡ 2:1:22:1:2 ..or the formation of
HCl(g)HCl(g) 1/2H_2(g)+1/2Cl_2(g) rarr HCl(g)12H2(g)+12Cl2(g)→HCl(g) ;1:1:2;1:1:2 ...and this gas law supports the proposal that VOLUME (under given conditions) is proportional to the number of gaseous particles.
