Elements `X` and `Y` belong to groups 1 and 17 of the periodic table respectively. What will be the nature of the bond in the compound `XY`? Give two properties of `XY`

Verified by Experts

Group 1 elements are metals, so element `X` is a metal. Group 17 elements are non -metals, so element `Y` is a non -metal. Now we know that when a metal element cobines with a non metal elements, then ionic bond is formed. So the bond in `XY` will be an ionic bond (Give the two properties of ionic compounds yourself).
