Is the law of definite composition the same as the law of definite proportion?
yes it is .. also called prousts law
Does a mixture obey the law of definite composition?
Yes, a mixture does not obey the law of definite composition. Mixtures can have varying proportions of different substances, whereas compounds, which obey the law of definite composition, have a fixed ratio of elements.
What is the law that states that a chemical compound always contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by w eight and mass?
The law you are referring to is the Law of Definite Proportions. This law states that a chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions by mass, regardless of the source of the compound.
What is the chemical equation of the law of definite composition?
This law hasn't a chemical equation !
Is it true that a chemical has a definite composition?
Yes, after the Law of definite proportions; but now it is clear that this law is not applicable to all known chemical compounds.
What theory states that a given compound will always contain exactly the same proportion of elements by weight?
Law of definite proportion or law of definite composition.
How is the Law of definite composition and proportion relate to the empirical formula?
The Law of Definite Composition states that a compound will always have the same proportion of elements by mass. This relates to the empirical formula because the empirical formula gives the simplest whole number ratio of the elements in a compound, which reflects the fixed composition of elements as per the Law of Definite Composition.
What is the name of the chemical law?
For example the law of definite proportions.
Is the law of definite proportions says that the composition of a compound always the same?
always the same
What you mean by nonstoichiometry?
The chemical composition of nonstoichiometric compounds do not respect the law of definite proportions.
Explain how your class's results in this experiment support the law of definite composition?
The law of definite composition states that a compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion by mass. If our class's results consistently show that the same compound formed from specific elements in the experiment, then it supports the law of definite composition by demonstrating that the elements combine in a fixed ratio to form the compound.
Is the law of definite composition applicable to compounds only?
This law is not valid for all chemical compounds (ex. nonstoichiometric compounds).
