Q. Two elements $X$ and $Y$ combine in gaseous state to form $X Y$ in the ratio 1: 35.5 by mass. The mass of $Y$ that will be required to react with $2 g$ of $X$ is:

Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry

Solution:

$1 \,g$ of $X$ combines with $Y =35.5 \, g$

$\therefore 2 \,g$ of $X$ combines with $Y =2 \times 35.5 \,g =71 \,g$
