Suppose three different compounds composed of only nitrogen and oxygen were analyzed and the following data were obtained:
Mass of: Samples N O
Compound-A 1.500 g 0.955 g 0.545 g
Compound-B 2.000 g 0.933 g 1.067 g
Compound-C 3.000 g 0.913 g 2.087 g βββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
a) Show that this data is consistent with the law of multiple proportions.
(b) If compound-B has the formula NO, what are the formulas of compounds A and C?
