why ? short brief is fine Two samples of sodium chloride were decomposed into theirconstituent elements. One sample produced 6.98 {rm g} of sodium and10.7 {rm g} of chlorine, and theother sample produced 11.2 {rm g} of sodium and17.3 {rm g} of chlorine. Are these resultsconsistent with the law of definite proportions? and why ? short brief is fine

Explanation / Answer

6.98g *(1mol/23 g) = 0.303478261 moles Na 10.7 g *(1 mol / 35.5) = 0.301408451 moles Cl => NaCl 11.2 g *(1mol/23 g) = 0.486956522 moles Na 17.3 g *( 1mol /35.5 g) = 0.487323944 moles Cl =NaCl Yes, consistent with law of definite proportions (always 1:1 ratioof Na to Cl)
