Molecular formula from calculation comes to be C3H6O i.e., it stands for the following compounds.

No addition reaction with Br2

 

VD * 2 = MM         = 29 * 2 = 58

?  58 g of ether combines with 2 * 80g Br2

? 2.9 g of ether will combines with   2 * 8 0 5 8 * 2 . 9 = 8 g o f B r o m i n e

Y = 9 and X = 8

Y - X = 9 - 8 = 1
