Solution
The correct option is CX=NaCl,Y=Naphthalene Since crystals of Y were formed on the walls of flask hence it must be some compound which sublimates on heating, and there was no effect on the X so X must be compound with high boiling point. The only combination with these properties are X=NaCl, Y=Naphthalene
