(N/A) $Ca : C : O_{3} = 40 : 12 : (16 \times 3) = 40 : 12 : 48 = 10 : 3 : 12$
$(b)$ $Mg : Cl_{2} = 24 : (35.5 \times 2) = 24 : 71$
$(c)$ $H_{2} : S : O_{4} = (1 \times 2) : 32 : (16 \times 4) = 2 : 32 : 64 = 1 : 16 : 32$
$(d)$ $C_{2} : H_{6} : O = (12 \times 2) : (1 \times 6) : 16 = 24 : 6 : 16 = 12 : 3 : 8$
$(e)$ $N : H_{3} = 14 : (1 \times 3) = 14 : 3$
$(f)$ $Ca : O_{2} : H_{2} = 40 : (16 \times 2) : (1 \times 2) = 40 : 32 : 2 = 20 : 16 : 1$
