Two metallic oxides contain 27.6% and 30%
oxygen respectively. If the formula of the first oxide
is X204, that of the second will be
(1) XO
(2) XO,
(3) X,O
(4) X,03

Answer:
Sorry your options dont have the answer. From what i worked out, the answer is X2O3
Explanation:
Given that, formula of first oxide = X3O4
Given that, formula of first oxide = X3O4
Let mass of the metal = y
% of metal in X3O4 = (3y/ 3y+64) *100
But as given % = (100-27.6) = 72.4 %
So, (3y/ 3y+64)*100 = 72.4
Or y = 56.
In 2nd oxide,
Oxygen = 30%....so metal = 70%
So, the ratio is
X : O
70/56 : 30/16
1.25 : 1.875
2 : 3
So, 2nd oxide is X2O3
Hope that helps
