LAW OF RECIPROCAL PROPORTION: WHEN 2 DIFFERENT ELEMENTS COMBINE SEPERATELY WITH FIXED MASS OF A THIRD ELEMENT, THE MASS IN WHICH THEY DO SO WILL BE SAME OR SIMPLE MULTIPLE OF THE RATIO IN WHICH THEY COMBINE WITH EACH OTHER. QUES:ILLUSTRATE THE LAW OF RECIPROCAL PROPORTION FROM THE FOLLOWING DATA:KCl contains 52% K , KI contains 23.6% K, ICl contains 72.8% I. Ans. In KCl contains K52% So,it will contain 48%Cl.    KI contains 23.6%K and 76.4%I,     ICl contains 72.8%I and 27.2%Cl.                                ON solving, we get ICl:ICl= 1:3.5 and 1:3.5
