Answer: In a compound with molecular formula
,the valency of Y and X are 2 and 3 respectively.
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
The given compound is
where X and Y combine and their oxidation states or valencies are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios. Thus the oxidation state or valency of X is 3 and that of Y is 2.
The correct answer is option B. i.e. the number of protons is increased.
In beta-particle emission, a neutron is changed into proton, electron and electron neutrino. The electron is emitted as beta particle and the proton remains inside the atom. Thus, the mass number remains same but the atomic number increases by one.
