What are the laws of Chemical combination ?

Plz Batao..
lol...sorry man, if only i knew this is what i found on the internet: The basic laws of chemical combination are the law of conservation of mass, the law of constant composition, and the law of multiple proportions. LoCM - The mass of a closed system will remain constant over time, regardless of the processes acting inside the system. A similar statement is that mass cannot be created/destroyed, although it may be rearranged in space, and changed into different types of particles. This implies that for any chemical process in a closed system, the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. LoCC - The law of constant composition states that the composition of a substance is always the same, regardless of how the substance was made or where the substance is found. So, whenever we talk about water, we know that there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen in a molecule of water. As soon as the composition of a molecule changes, then you have a different substance with different properties. LoMP - This law states that when elements combine they do so in a ratio of small whole numbers. For example, carbon and oxygen react to form CO or CO2, but not CO1.3 for instance. Furthermore, it states that if two elements form more than one compound between them then the ratios of the masses of the second element combined with a fixed mass of the first element will also be in ratios of small whole numbers.
