Answer:

XZ2

Explanation:

There are different ways in which compounds can be represented. Broadly, we have three different types of formula;

- Structural formular: This shows how th atoms in te compound are connected to each other.

- Molecular formular: This shows the actual number of atoms of element present in the compound

- Empirical Formular: This is the simplest formular of a compound. It basically shows the number of atoms in simple ration to each other.

This question requires us to input the empirical formular;

X2Z4

The ratio of the elements is; 2 : 4 which can be simplified into 1 : 2

This means the empirical formular is XZ2
