Answer:

2. X₂O

Explanation:

Elements in group 1A are known as alkali metal. Examples include lithium, sodium, and potassium among others.
These elements have one valence electron in the outermost energy level and therefore form cations with a charge of +1.
They have a valency of 2.
Oxygen, on the other hand,has a valency of 2.
Therefore, a chemical formula of a compound formed when an element in group 1A say X reacts with oxygen will be X₂O.
To write the formula, we identify the symbol of the elements and their valence.
Then the atoms of the two elements exchange their valencies which are written as a subscript on each symbol of an element.

In keeping with the general trends, K-Br will have the smallest bond energy. The bond energy refers to the energy that keeps the atoms in a bond together.

<h3>What is bond energy?</h3>

Bond energy is the energy that is required to hold atoms together in a bond. This energy must also be supplied when the atoms are to be separated.

We have the bond energies of each of the bons in the question, we have to note that the the smallest value of bond energy is Na-Br hence in keeping with the general trends, K-Br will have the smallest bond energy.
