Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the element X is malleable and ductile which means that element X is a metal.

CATION..

On the other hand the element Y is non malleable and non ductile does it means that element Y is a non metal.

We know that a non metal always forms an anion

Does due to this reason the element Y will form ANION..
