the valency of A is 2

valency of B = 1
and the formula = AB2

we know during writing fornulas the valency gets interchanged

therefore valency of A = 2

It is clear that the valency of B is 1

The compound is AB2

While we write the formula, Valency of A goes to B and that of B to A.

Thus, Valency of A is 2

As metals are placed before in formula, Valency of A is +2
