Heya friend!!
Rajdeep here!!

A compound XH is formed when X reacts with hydrogen. Hydrogen has a valency of one, and the valency of Hydride radical is also -1.
A molecule of a compound is always neutral. In XH, Valency of H is -1, so valency of X should be +1 so that the resulting valency of the compound is 0.

Hence, if the compound is XH, the valency of X is +1.

Hope you have got your answer
