Answer:
The lowest whole number mass ratio of nitrogen that combines with a given mass of oxygen is 1:1
Explanation:
In compound A, we have 14 g of nitrogen combine with  16 g of oxygen
In compound B, we have 14 g of nitrogen combine with  32 g of oxygen
Therefore, Â we have
                                  A               B
Ratio of molar masses                14:16         14:32
Mass of O that combine with 1 g of N Â Â Â 1.14 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 2.29
Dividing by the smallest mass ratio      1             2
Therefore the lowest whole number mass ratio at which oxygen and nitrogen can combine = 1:1.
