Explanation:
Given: X and Y belong to same period, X belongs to group '1' and Y belongs to group '2'.
Since metallic character decreases on moving from left to right in a period and X lies in group1 and Y in group 2. So, X will have more metallic character than Y.
The Oxide of element X and Y are: Oxide of X is X20 Oxide of Y is YO
Since valency of X is 1. So, Chloride of X = XCI The valency of Y is 2, Chloride of Y = YCI2
