The percent A by mass for substance AB = 75%
Proust states the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison, so that compounds have a fixed composition of elements
Empirical formula is the mole ratio of compounds forming elements.
From Substance AB₂ is 60.0% A by mass.
Let's say that AB₂ mass = 100 gram, then
mass A = 60 gram
mass B = 40 gram : 2 (coefficient in compound AB₂ = 2) = 20 gram
In compound AB:
Total mass = mass A + mass B
Total mass = 60 + 20 grams = 80 grams
Then the percentage of compound A = (60: 80) = 75%
Grams of KO₂ needed to form O₂
