hey buddy,

a) Y is more metallic
reason: Electropositivity is directly proportional to metallic character
as size of the atom increases, electropositivity increases

b) formula of chloride- xcl2
formula of sulphide-ySO4

c) their valency is same becz
in a grp, all the elements hav same no of valance electrons

Explanation:

(a) Y is more metallic in nature as metallic nature increases down the group.

(b) Both x and y has a valency of 2 so chloride of x is XCl2 and sulphide of y is YS

(c) The valency of x and y is same as they lie in the same group no.
