Solution

The correct option is B 133.3 g
The molar mass of Y2 is 2×30=60.

The molar mass of XY3 is 10+3(30)=100

The balanced reaction is:
2X+3Y22XY3

Thus, 180 g of Y2 completely react with X to form 200 g of XY3

Hence, 120 g of Y2 completely react with X to form 120180×200=133.3 g of XY3.

Hence, option A is correct.
