Answer:
X and Z
Explanation:
If the difference in electronegativity between two atoms is greater than 1.7, they will form an ionic bond.
W and Z: 3.2 - 1.5 = 1.7 no
X and Z: 3.2 - 0.93 = 2.27 yes
Y and Z: 3.2 - 2.0 = 1.2 no
W and Y: 2.0 - 1.5 = 0.5 no
X and Y: 2.0 - 0.93 = 1.07 no
W and X: 1.5 - 0.93 = 0.57 no
X and Z are most likely to form an ionic bond together.
Hope this helps.
Its cut off Be sure then i cant see the rest

Explanation:
Graham's law was applied and the rates of effusion of nitrogen and the unknown gas were compared as shown in the image. The unknown gas is heavier than hydrigen hence it effuses slower than hydrogen as anticipated by Graham's law.
In an ionic compound the atoms are linked via ionic bonds. These are formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge whereas the atom that accepts electrons gains a negative. This happens in accordance with the octet rule wherein each atom is surrounded by 8 electrons
In the given example:
The valence electron configuration of Iodine (I) = 5s²5p⁵
It needs only one electron to complete its octet.
In the given options:
K = 4s¹
C = 2s²2p²
Cl = 3s²3p⁵
P = 3s²3p³
Thus K can donate its valence electron to Iodine. As a result K, will gain a stable noble gas configuration of argon while iodine would gain an octet. This would also balance the charges as K⁺I⁻ creating a neutral molecule.
Ans: Potassium (K)
