Molar Mass -

The mass of one mole of a substance in grams is called its molar mass.

- wherein

 Molar mass of water = 18 g mol-1

 

 

 Let the atomic weight of X  = x 

    and atomic weight of  Y = y

then ,  x+2y = \frac{10}{0.1}

and  3x+2y = \frac{9}{0.05} = 180

as saluiy , we get 

x=40

y=30
