To check the principle of multiple proportions, a series of pure binary compounds (Pm Qn) were analyzed and their composition is tabulated below. The correct option(s) is(are ) (2022)
Compound Weight% of P Weight%of Q
1 50 50
2 44.4 55.6
3 40 60
  1. If empirical formula of compound 3 is P3Q4, then the empirical formula of compound 2 is P3Q5.
  2. If empirical formula of compound 3 is P3Q2 and atomic weight of element P is 20, then the atomic weight of Q is 45 .
  3. If empirical formula of compound 2 is PQ, then the empirical formula of the compound 1 is P5Q4
  4. If atomic weight of P and Q are 70 and 35, respectively, then the empirical formula of compound 1 is P2Q.

Answer

(B) If empirical formula of compound 3 is P 3 Q 2 and atomic weight of element P is 20, then the atomic weight of Q is 45 ., (C) If empirical formula of compound 2 is PQ, then the empirical formula of the compound 1 is P 5 Q 4
