Answer:

X is sodium hydroxide (caustic soda, NaOH)

y is sodium (Na)

Explanation:

The process of industrial electrolysis of sodium chloride solution by which chlorine and sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) can be produced is known as the chlor-alkali process as follows;

2NaCl + 2H₂O → Cl₂ + H₂ + 2NaOH

Given that the compound X is formed from a element y which is in the form of a pellet, we have;

The element in the above reaction that can exist as pellet is the silver white metallic sodium pellet

Therefore, the compound X is NaOH and the element y is sodium, Na.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

negative, positive, increase

Explanation:

From the given question,  

During the formation of bond, between two atoms with difference between their electronegativity-

  • The more electronegative atom, will pull the electrons towards itself , and hence acquires a partial negative charge,

And,

  • The less electronegative atom, will acquire a partial positive charge.
  • The more the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the more would be the magnitude of partial charge.
  • And, the less would be the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the lesser would be the magnitude of partial charge.
