Explanation:C

Combustion reaction defined as reaction of compound with the oxygen gas along with release of the large amount heat,.


4M_3N_x(s)+7xO_2(g)\rightarrow 4xNO_2(g)+6M_2O_x(s)

When compound with nitrogen and metal atoms undergoes combustion reaction it gives nitrogen dioxide gas and solid metallic oxide of the metal as a products.

Compound X is nitrogen dioxide.
NO_2

Compound Y is metal oxide,
6M_2O_x
