Question

What type of bond will be formed between two elements 'p (At.No.=13) and "Q" (At. No.=17) Give the electron dot structure of the formation of compound between them. Write any one characteristics of the compound also.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Valence electrons in P is 2; Valence electrons in Q is 6.

P−2e

−

→P

2+

Q+2e

−

→Q

2−

Since both show a valency of 2, the formula for the compound will be PQ.
