An element, X, forms a volatile hydride XH
3 with a vapour density of 17.0. The relative atomic mass of X is?
(H = 1)
-
A.
34.0
-
B.
31.0
-
C.
20.0
-
D.
14.0
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
Molecular Mass = Vapour density x 2 = 17.0 x 2 = 34.0
∴ Relative Atomic Mass of X in XH3 = 34 - 3
= 31.0 ∴ x = 31.0
