A sample of poisonous carbon monoxide gas, CO, contains 2.50 g carbon and 3.33 g oxygen. The unknown gas X is analyzed and it is determined to be made of 0.75 g carbon and 2.00 g oxygen. Are
these data an example of the law of definite proportions, the law of multiple proportions, or neither?
What does the data tell you about the identity of gas X?

Explanation:

In carbon monoxide ,

2.5 g of carbon reacts with 3.33 g of oxygen

In unknown gas X ,

.75 g of carbon reacts with 2 .00 g of oxygen

2.5 g of carbon will react with 6.66 g of oxygen in X gas .

Ratio of oxygen in two compounds , reacting with same mass of carbon

= 3.33 : 6.66

= 1 : 2 , a simple ratio

It follows law of multiple proportions .

First gas is CO or carbon monoxide

X gas is CO₂ or carbon dioxide .

In this gas , ratio of oxygen reacting with same amount of carbon is doubled .

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.
