Correct Answer: 2

Solution and Explanation

Neutralization reactions:

\( \mathrm{H^+ + OH^- \rightarrow H_2O} \quad (\text{from HCl: } X), \)
\( \mathrm{2H^+ + 2OH^- \rightarrow 2H_2O} \quad (\text{from } H_2SO_4: Y). \)

From the reactions:

\( Y = 2X \implies \frac{Y}{X} = 2. \)

Final Answer: 2.
