Answer:

The atomic weight of the "y" compound is 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

The carbon atomic weight = 12 g/mol

Atomic weight of "X" =
2.96* 2

One mole of "X" element has mass 0.444 times the mass of one mole of element "Y".

So, atomic weight of "X" element =
0.444* Atomic\,weight\,of\,y


Atomic\,weight\,of\,y= (Weight\,of\,X)/(0.444)


= (2.96* 2)/(0.444)= 80.7\equiv 80

Therefore, The atomic weight of the "y" compound is 80.
