An element (X) reacts with hydrogen leading to formation of a class of compounds that is analogous to hydrocarbons. 5.00 g of X forms 5.625 g of a mixture of two compounds of in the molar ratio of 2:1. Determine the molar mass of X. **Options:** - **A.** [object Object] - **B.** [object Object] - **C.** [object Object] - **D.** [object Object] --- **Difficulty:** HARD | **Chapter:** Mole concept | **Topic:** Basic stoichiometry, POAC, percent yield & limiting reagent

Official Solution

## ✅ Correct Answer: **A** ### 📖 Detailed Explanation: This question uses stoichiometry and limiting reagent. Write the balanced chemical equation, compute moles of each reactant, identify the limiting reagent, and use stoichiometric ratios (and % yield, if needed) to obtain the answer; this gives option A. --- *This is an official solution provided by Chem Mantra.
