Answer:

d. 127 g/mol.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we have the amount of molecules of this this compound, we are able to compute the moles out there by using the Avogadro's number:

[tex]mol=7.02x10^{23}molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec}=1.17mol[/tex]

Which correspond to the moles of X2. Then, by using the mass we are able to compute the molar mass of X2:

[tex]MM=\frac{296g}{1.17mol}\\\\MM=254g/mol[/tex]

It means that the atomic mass of X halves the molar mass of X2, which is then d. 127 g/mol.

Best regards!
