problem

Unknown metal M reacts with chlorine (Cl2) leading to compound B. Compound B reacts with alkaline solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) giving compound C. When heated, 1 gram of compound C decomposes in 0.873 grams of compound G, 0.0982 grams of water (H2O) and 20.16 milliliters of gas H under standard temperature and pressure.

Let ω(X, Y) denote the percentage mass of element X in compound Y. ω(M, G) = 73.34%. 

Identify compound C.
