Answer:
B) Has low melting point.
As X loses electron and Y gains electron, so X is metal and Y is non-metal. So the bond formed is ionic bond. So Z is an ionic compound.
Properties of Z
- High melting and boiling point
- Conduct electricity in molten and aqueous state.
- Mostly occurs in solid form.
