A certain compound has the molecular formula `X_(4) O_(6)`. If 10g of `X_(4)O_(6)` has `5.72` g `X`, the atomic mass of X is

A

32 amu

B

37 amu

C

42 amu

D

98 amu

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Let the atomic weight of X bex, `" "` mole of `X_4O_6` = mol of X
`implies ("Weight of" X_4O_6)/("Atomic weight of "X_4O_6) =("Wt . of X")/("At . wt. of " 4x)implies10/(4x+6xx16)=(5.72)/(4x) " ":. x = 32`
