A metal (M) forms two oxides. The ratio \(\mathrm{M}: \mathrm{O}\) (by weight) in the two oxides are \(25: 4\) and \(25: 6\). The minimum value of atomic mass of \(M\) is
- A 50
- B 100
- C 150
- D 200
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 100
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Let two oxide be \(\mathrm{M}_2 \mathrm{O}_x\) and \(\mathrm{M}_2 \mathrm{Oy}\) \(\underline{\text{As per question}}\) \(\frac{2 a}{16 x}=\frac{25}{4}\) and \(\frac{2 a}{16 y}=\frac{25}{6}\) \(x=\frac{a}{50}, y=\frac{3 a}{100}\) where \(a=\) atomic mass of Metal As \(x\) and…
