Justify with example that the law of reciprocal proportions is a special case of the law of equivalent proportions.

a. 0.460 g of metal produced 0.77g of metal oxide.

Example 4:

b. 0.805 g of the same metal displaced 760 cc of H_{2} gas at NTP form HCI.

c. 1.260 g of water was formed by the union of 1.12 g of oxygen with hydrogen.

Show that these data illustrate the law of reciprocal proportions.
