Law of multiple proportions relate the mass number of reactants.

Carbon can react with hydrogen to form several different compounds. Two compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen are methane and ethylene. Select the statement that is an example of the law of multiple proportions. Two different samples of methane have the same ratio of carbon to hydrogen. Two different samples of ethylene have the same ratio of carbon to hydrogen. The mass ratio of carbon to hydrogen in methane is 3: 1. The mass ratio of carbon to hydrogen in ethylene is 6: 1. When carbon and hydrogen react to form ethylene, the mass of ethylene formed is equal to the mass of carbon and hydrogen that reacted. When carbon and hydrogen react to form methane, the mass of methane formed is equal to the mass of carbon and hydrogen that reacted.

A general chemistry student found a chunk of metal in the basement of a friends house. To figure out what it was, she used the ideas just developed in class about density. She measured the mass of the metal to be 175.2 grams. Then she dropped the metal into a measuring cup and found that it displaced 15.3 mL of water. Calculate the density of the metal. What element is this metal most likely to be?
