Use of the empirical formula
With an atomic number of 55, that means there are 55 protons. Because electrons do not count towards atomic weight, the element would have 150-55 neutrons. So, 95 neutrons.

Answer:
atomic mass 112.4 and Cadmium (Cd)
Explanation:
You have 73.35 g of MO.
After the reaction the O is removed and you only have M which the mass is 64.21 g.
With that you can calculate the mass of O removed:
Mass of O = 9.14 g
Mass = AM * moles ; (AM : Atomic Mass)
9.14 = 16 * moles
moles = 9.14 / 16
moles = 0.57125
The formula of the metal oxide is MO, meaning it has 1 mole of M per mole of O. 73.35 had 0.57125 moles of O, then it also had 0.57125 moles of M, and the remaining mass of 64.21 g represents those moles
Mass = AM * moles ; (AM : Atomic Mass)
64.21 = AM * 0.57125
AM = 64.21/0.57125 = 112.4 amu
The metal with an atomic mass of 112.4 is Cadmium (Cd), therefore the metal oxide is CdO
