Answer:
No, the compound formed will not dissolve in an organic solvent.
As, we know that "like dissolves like", so polar compounds get dissolved in polar solvents whereas non-polar compounds get dissolved in non-polar solvents.
Since, Y is formed by the transfer of electrons forming an ionic bond.
Ionic bonds are highly polar in nature whereas the organic solvents are non-polar in nature. So, the compound formed will not get dissolved in the organic solvent.
