@ChristopheDebove What's the original sentence verbatim? It would be weird to call clothes 东西 even in colloquial language.

@NS.X. Defenitly agree with you. I should be very rare to use 东西 for clothes. but it was just an exemple to respond the a generic issue. In my question I use 东西 to insist in that point. In my comment above I just ilustrated in which situation this interogative structure could be used.

<p>The proper way to say this would be thus:</p>

<p>"你要把這個東西跟那個換[ 掉] 嗎？“</p>

<p>If you insist on not using the "把“ construction, then you should write it thus:</p>

<p>“你這個東西要換那個嗎？”</p>

as in comment #2, X is usually replaced by nothing, but with different position for verb 换, 你要这个东西换那个，cf。jukuu： He gave me an apple in exchange for a cake.
 ３。他给我一个苹果，换一块蛋糕。8.  I'll give you three sweets in exchange for an apple.
 我拿三块糖换你一个苹果。 

换A成／为B， A=这个东西，B＝那个 also possible, （e.g.currency)

This is not a natural speaking, so I can not find a word for X. It will be better: 你要用这个东西换那个吗?
