प्रश्न
An element X from group 2 reacts with element Y from group 16 of the periodic table.
(a) What is the formula of the compound formed?
(b) What is the nature of bond in the compound formed?
उत्तर
(a) An element X from group 2 has a valency of 2. An element Y from group 16 has a valency of 2. As both the elements are divalent, an atom of X combines with an atom of Y to form a compound with the formula XY.
(b) The nature of the bond in the compound is ionic, since the element X is a metal as it is from group 2. The element Y is a non-metal as it is from group 16. When a metal combines with a non-metal, a transfer of electrons takes place and an ionic bond is formed.
