As we have learnt,

 

Number of Moles -

No of moles = given mass of substance/ molar mass of substance

-

 

 

Given Chemical reaction,

M_2CO_3 + 2HCl \rightarrow 2MCl + 2H_2O + CO_2

    1gm                                                           0.01186\;moles

From the balanced equation 

\frac{1}{M} = 0.01186 \Rightarrow M = \frac{1}{0.01186} = 83.4


Option 1)

 118.6

Option 2)

11.86

Option 3)

1186

Option 4)

 84.3
