Xenon (xe) and fluorine (f) can combine to form several different compounds, including xef2, which contains 0.2894 g fluorine for every gram of xenon. use the law of multiple proportions to determine, n, which represents the number of f atoms in another compound, xefn, given that it contains 0.8682 g of f for every gram of xe.

    We can say that for every 2 atoms of F, there is a mass of 0.2894 g as evident from the compound XeF2. Now to find for f, we can say that there are n atoms of F for every 0.8682 g of F. Taking the proportion:

    2 atoms / 0.2894 g = n / 0.8682 g

    Calculating for n:

    n = 2 * 0.8682 / 0.2894

    n = 6
