Solution

The correct option is A multiple proportions
In compound A 1 gm of nitrogen combined with 0.57 gm of oxygen and compound B 1 gm of nitrogen combined with 1.12 gm of oxygen and C 1 gm of nitrogen combined with 1.7 gm of oxygen so the fixed amount of nitrogen is 1: 2 :3 so this follows of multiple proportion rule
