\mathrm{NO}_3^ -

and

{\mathrm{H}_3}{\mathrm{O}^ + }

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Dissimilar in hybridization for the central atom with different structure

Option A (x > y) is correct because the enthalpy of combustion of CH4 is more negative than that of CH3OH, indicating that more heat is released during the combustion of CH4.
