Answer:
Explanation:
Atom X,
Neutron num = 4, Mass num = 7
Therefore, proton number = Mass num - Neutron num
= 7 - 4
= 3
Atom Y,
Neutron num = 5, Mass num = 9
Therefore, proton number = Mass num - Neutron num
= 9 - 5
= 4
1) False. Atom X belongs to group 3 while atom Y belongs to group 4
2) False. Atom X is in a column on the left of Atom Y
3) True. Atom X and atom Y belong to the same period two on the periodic table
4) Fasle. Atom X and Y are not isotopes because they do not have the same atomic number.
Isotopy is a phenomenon whereby atom of same element have same atomic number but different mass number

It is not correct to say " a molecule of salt " because salt is a compound.
Explanation:
- As we know a molecular bond is present in each molecule.
- Salt (NaCl) is considered as a compound because it is made up of two types of elements that are sodium as well as chlorine.
- On the other hand it is not considered as a molecule as it is not holding an ionic bond.
- As a result we can name it as an ionic compound. Hence it is not considered as a molecule of salt.
