XH_{3}
H has a positive 1 charge. This means that having 3H = +3<span>.  This is a neutral compound so x= -3 because X+3H= 0

Y</span>X_{2} is also neutral so 2X+Y= 0
we know X=-3 So, 2(-3)+Y=0
-6+y=0
Y=+6 charge

 
Answer: The valency of X is -3. The valency of Y is 6

Choose the selection which correctly characterizes all three of the following substances in terms of whether they are polar or n
ohaa [14]

Answer:

SiH4 is nonpolar and BBr3 is nonpolar and SiF4 is nonpolar.

Explanation:

SiH4 is a non-polar compound. Though the Si–H bonds are polar, as a result of different electronegativities of Si and H. However, as there are 4 electron repulsions around the central Si atom, the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically around the central atom having a tetrahedral shape hence they cancel out making the compound nonpolar.

SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine atoms are arranged symetrically around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out just like in SiH4.

The 3 bromine atoms all lie in the same plane thus the geometry of the compound will be trigonal planar. The BBr3 will be non polar because the three B-Br bonds will cancel out each others' dipole moment given that they are in the same plane.
