To solve the problem, we need to determine the formula of the second oxide of the metal, given that the first oxide is represented by M₂O₃ and contains 31.6% oxygen, while the second oxide contains 48% oxygen. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the first oxide (M₂O₃)**: - The formula of the first oxide is M₂O₃, which means it contains 2 moles of metal (M) and 3 moles of oxygen (O). - The molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol, so the total mass of oxygen in M₂O₃ is: \[ ...
