The compound X is Sodium chloride i.e NaCl.
Explanation:
- The molecular mass of the compound = 58
- We have to find the molecular formula of the compound.
- If we look at the molecular formula of sodium chloride i.e NaCl we see that the ratio of both atoms is the same i.e 1.
- Na + Cl = 23 + 35 = 58 g / mol
- This means that one mole of NaCl has 6.02 x1023 formulas. Means a total mass of 58 g/mol
