Consider 100.0 g samples of two different compounds consisting only of chromium and oxygen. One compound contains 61.9 g of chromium and the other has 76.5 g of chromium. Find the ratio: m(Cr)compound 2/m(0) compound 2 m(Cr) compound 1/m(0)compound 1 to show how can these data support the law of multiple proportions if 76.5 is not a multiple of 61.9.
