Question

the elements x and y have the following configuration x(2,6)y (2,8,8,2) what is nature bond of x and y ​

Answer 1

Answer:NATURE OF BOND WILL BE IONIC

Explanation:AS FOR X WITH CONFIGURATION 2,6 WE KNOW ITS OXYGEN AND FOR Y WITH CONFIGURATION 2,8,8,2 WE KNOW ITS CALCIUM.

NOW CALCIUM AND OXYGEN HAS A HIGH ELECTRONEGATIVITY DIFFERENCE ALSO THEY HAVE A +2 & -2 CHARGE ON THEM RESPECTIVELY THUS THEY WILL FORM AN IONIC BOND.

HOPE U UNDERSTAND.

Answer 2

Answer:

x-oxygen

y-Calcium

well known compound of them is CaO

and this compound is ionic in nature becoz it has S block element I. e Ca , and it's metal too, which prefrentially forms ionic bond by donating the electrons....

Thank you!!!!!
