Question

The electrons in the outer most orbit of X,Y and Z atom are 7, 2 and 3 respectively. The valencies of the atoms are : * 1 point 1,6,5 1,3,2 7,2,3 1,2,3

Answer 1

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Correct

Answer 2

Explanation:

The correct option is A

1, 2,3

The atom X has 7 electrons in outer orbit, it needs 1 electron to attain octet.

Y has 2 electrons, it prefers to get rid of 2 electrons than to get 6 electrons to complete octet.

Similarly Z prefers to lose 3 electrons than getting 5 electrons.

So, valency (combining capacity) of X, Y, Z respectively are 1, 2, 3 respectively.
