    The ratio of the metal to oxygen is 2:1

    Explanation:

    Given parameters:

    Number of moles of unknown metals = 0.48moles

    Number of moles of oxygen = 0.24moles

    To find the mole ratio:

    We divide the given moles by the smallest values. This gives the simplest form of the two elements:

    Elements Unkown metal Oxygen

    Number of moles 0.48 0.24

    simplest form 0.48/0.24 0.24/0.24

    2 1

    The ratio of the metal to oxygen is 2:1
