Solution
The correct option is C gaseous proportions As per the Gay Lussac's law of combining volume of gases, the volumes of gaseous reactants and gaseous products bear a simple whole number ratio with each other if they are measured at same temperature and pressure. In the reaction N2+3H2⟶2H3, ratio by volume of N2,H2 and NH3 is 1:3:2. This illustrates law of Gay Lussac's law of combining volumes of gases.
