  1. Law of Multiple Proportions: If two elements combine to form more than one compound, the amounts of one element that combine with a fixed amount of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers.

  2. Law of Multiple Proportions: If two elements combine to form more than one compound, the amounts of one element that combine with a fixed amount of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers. Example: Nitrogen and oxygen combine to form several different oxides, of which three are NO, N2O, and NO2. From experiment it is known that 16 g of oxygen will combine with 14 g, 28 g, and 7 g of nitrogen, respectively, for the three compounds. These masses are in the ratio 14: 28: 7 or 2 : 4 : 1.
