Answer #1

Law of multiple proportions means when the same two elements combine to form more than one compound the ratio of mass of one element in the first compound to its mass in the second compound(as it combines with the same mass of other element), can always be expressed as ratio of small whole numbers.

To consider 2 compound for the comparison the two compounds should have same elements in it.

So answer is option A

because in all other options different set of elements are there.
