Q. No. 67 Two samples of lead oxide were separately reduced to metallic lead by heating in a
current of hydrogen. The weight of lead from one oxide was half the weight of lead
obtained from the other oxide. The data illustrates.
Option 1 Law of reciprocal proportions
Option 2 Law of constant proportions
Option 3 Law of multiple proportions

Correct Answer 3
Explanation With a fixed mass of oxygen the wt of lead combining bears a simple whole no
multiple. This is the law of multiple proportion.
Q. No. 68 One part of an element A combines with two parts of another element B. Six part of
the element C combine with four parts of the elements B. If A and C combine together
the ratio of their weights will be governed by
Option 1 Law of definite proportions
Option 2 Law of multiple proportions
Option 3 Law of reciprocal proportions
Option 4 Law of conservation of mass
Correct Answer 3
Explanation If A and B combine directly to form a compound and if C and B combine to form and
compound if A and C combine directly to form a 3rd compound then wt ratio of A and C
will be governed by law of reciprocal proportion.

Q. No. 73 H2S contains 5.88% hydrogen, H2O contains 11.11% hydrogen while SO2 contains 50%
sulphur. These figures illustrate the law of:
Option 1 Conservation of mass
Option 2 Constant proportions
Option 3 Multiple proportions
Option 4 Reciprocal proportions
Correct Answer 4
Explanation In H2 S, H = 5.88 % S = 94.12
In H2 O, H = 11.11 % ,O = 88.89
wt ration S : O = 1 : 1
In SO 2 , S = 50 ,O = 50
wt ratio of S : O = 1 : 1
This illustrate the law of reciprocal proportion.
Q. No. 74 Hydrogen combines with chlorine to form HCl. It also combines with sodium to form
NaH. If sodium and chlorine also combine with each other, they will do so in the ratio
of their masses as:
Option 1 23 : 35.5
Option 2 35.5 : 23
Option 3 1:1
Option 4 23 : 1
Correct Answer 1
Explanation In HCl, wt ratio of H : Cl = 1 : 35.5
In NaOH, wt ratio of H : Na = 1 : 23
If Na and Cl combine directly then wt ratio = 23 : 35.5
