To determine the formula and the nature of bonding of the chloride of an element X that is placed in group 14, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Valency of Element X - Elements in group 14 have four valence electrons. Therefore, element X will have a valency of 4. ### Step 2: Determine the Formula of the Chloride - Chlorine (Cl) has a valency of 1, meaning it can form one bond with another element. - Since element X has a valency of 4, it can bond with four chlorine atoms. ...
