Dear Student,16 g of oxygen combines with 14 g of X32 g of  oxygen combines with 1416×32 of X = 28 g of XAtomic mass of oxygen is = 16 g/ molOne oxygen atom combines with 14 g of XTwo oxygen atom combines with 28 g of XAtomic mass of Nitrogen is 14 g /molSo, X is Nitrogen
 and its oxide formula is NO Nitric oxide Molecular mass of Nitric oxide is = 14 + 16 = 30 g / mol

14 gm of an element X combines with 16 gm of oxygen. On the basis of this find the atomic weight of X and it's Oxide formula. (At. Wt of oxygen=16)
