Two elements A (atm. wt. 75) and B (atm wt. 16) combine to yield a compound. The percentage by weight of A in the compound was found to be 75.08. The formula of the compound is -
The two elements X and Y will show same chemical properties because they have same number of valence electrons in group. They form positively charged ions by losing one electron
Electronic configuration of element X, atomic number 12=2;8;2
Electronic configuration of element 'Y' atomic number 16=2,8,6
Both have three shells, so they belong to period 3.
They will form an ionic bond as x...
(i) Number of electrons in the outermost orbit of
X=1 and Y=2.
(ii) Valency of X=1 and Y=2.
(iii) Metal X is more metallic than Y.
(iv) Atomic size of X is bigger than...
