a covalent bond will be formed
the valency of y is 4 but it cant gain 4 electrons because it will be difficult for the nucleus to handle 4 more electrons
it cant even lose 4 electrons because large amount of energy will be required to separate 4 electrons from an atoms
so it will share electrons and form covalent bond
compound:xy4
