Document Summary

Say you have two compounds made from x and y but in different whole number ratios. Lmp states that (a/b)/(c/d) will always be a whole number or 1 over a whole number. First ratio: (g x/g compound)/(g y/g compound) = g x/g y. Second ratio: (g x/g y)/(g x/g y) > all units cancel resulting in a unitless ratio. The ratio will always be a whole number ratio because regardless of which compound they"re in, elements always combine in whole number ratios. Note that a and c are the same element, b and d are the same element. 1 amu = 1. 661 * 10-24 g. 1 atom of 12c = 12 amu. # of atoms in 12g of 12c = 12 g 12c * (1 amu/1. 661 * 10-24 g) * (1 atom 12c/12 amu) = 6. 022 * Notice how the values 12g and 12 amu cancel out. This will be true for any atom.
