45.4 L of dinitrogen reacted with 22.7 L of dioxygen and 45.4 L of nitrous oxide was formed. The reaction is given below: 2N 2 (g) + O 2 (g) → 2N 2 O(g) Which law is being obeyed in this experiment? Write the statement of the law?

Dinitrogen and dioxygen are N₂ and O₂, which are gases at STP. The reaction proceeds to form N₂O. The ratios of the reactant and products are 45.4:22.7:45.4, which is equal to 2:1:2.

The ratio has small whole numbers and is simple. Hence the experiment follows the Gay-Lussac’s law of gaseous volumes, which states that when gases combine or produced in a chemical reaction they do so in a simple ratio by volume, provided all gases are at the same temperature and pressure.
