Correct answer: 2
-
Let the atomic weights of elements and be:
-
We are given that there are moles each of compounds and , and both samples weigh equally.
-
Molar masses of the compounds:
- For :
- For :
-
Since equal moles ( mol) of both compounds have equal mass:
-
Cancel from both sides:
-
Solve for the ratio:
-
Therefore,
So, the atomic weight of is 2 times the atomic weight of .
