Answer

Atomic mass of Y in amu = 103.26 amu

Work Step by Step

Atomic mass of X in amu = 33.42 amu Atomic mass of X in gram = 33.42 g Given 27.22 g of X combine with 84.10 g of Y to form XY. Therefore mass of Y required to combine with 33.42 g X = $ (84.10 \times 33.42) \div 27.22 = 103.26 g$ Atomic mass of Y in amu = 103.26 amu
