Law of multiple proportions example of the law can be seen by comparing ethane (CH) with propane (CH). The weight of hydrogen which combines with 1 g carbon is 0.252 g in ethane and 0.224 g in propane. The ratio of those weights is 1.125, which can be expressed as the ratio of two small numbers 9:8. The law of multiple proportions is best demonstrated using simple compounds. For example, if one tried to demonstrate it using the hydrocarbons decane (chemical formula CH) and undecane (CH), one would find that 100 grams of carbon could react with 18.46 grams of hydrogen to produce decane
Muriel (given name) Muriel (given name) Muriel is a feminine given name in the English language. The name is of Gaelic origin and was originally spelt as "Muirgheal" ("muir" "sea", "gheal" "bright") in Irish and "Muireall" in Scottish Gaelic.

Remaining common in Scotland as Muriel, the name in this form was introduced back into England in the
