Detailed Solution

Ratio of oxygen of $S n O t o S n O_{2}$ is $\frac{13.5}{27.1} = \frac{1}{2}$

According to law of multiple proportions, ratio of masses of an element that combine with fixed mass of another element must be a simple whole number ratio.

Element with fixed mass = $S n$

Element with different combining ratio = oxygen

The law of multiple proportion is obeyed.
