Detailed Solution

Law of constant proportions does not hold true if the different isotopes of the element are not involved in chemical compound.

Example - For making CO2 gas, C-12 combines with O in ratio C:O::12:32 while C-14 carbon isotope combines in the ratio C:O::14:32.

Hence, using  different isotopes of the element is the limitation of law of constant proportions.
