problem

Colorless gas `A A ` reacts with pungent-smelling, colored gas `B B ` when exposed to radiation. From this, poisonous liquid `X X ` is extracted. `X X ` reacts with water (`H2O H_2O `) to form two strong acids in a 2:1 ratio. When barium chloride (`BaCl2 BaCl_2 `) is added to the resulting solution, a precipitate of `C C ` is obtained. Liquid `Y Y `, which contains the same elements as liquid `X X `, is also known. If the molar mass ratio of `B B ` to `A A ` is 1.107 and that of `X X ` to `Y Y ` is 1.134, identify compound `X X `. Think step by step and solve the problem below. At the end of your response, write your final answer on a new line starting with “FINAL ANSWER”. It should be an answer to the question such as providing a number, mathematical expression, formula, or entity name, without any extra commentary or providing multiple answer attempts.
