The observation that 4.0 g of hydrogen reacts with 32.0 g of oxygen to form a product with O:H mass ratio-8:1, and 6.0 g of hydrogen reacts with 48.0 g of oxygen to form the same product with O/H mass ratio = 8:1 is evidence for the law of 1. multiple proportions 2. erergy conservation. 3. mass conservation 4. definite proportion

Respuesta :

Answer:

Law of definite proportion

Explanation:

As per law of definite proportion, ratio of elements present in a compound is always fixed irrespective of the  source, amount and method of preparation.

In the given case, the hydrogen and oxygen react with each other to form a compound. The ratio of oxygen and hydrogen is fixed which is 8 : 1 and this ratio does not change upon changing amount of oxygen and hydrogen.

So, the this experiment support the law of definite proportion.

Therefore, the correct option is option 4
