Element X is a metal with valancy 2 .Element Y is a non metal with a valency 3. write equations to show how X and Y frons ions??

The element X will lose 2 electrons and become a cation and form X^2+.
The element Y will gain 3 electrons and become an anion and form Y^3-.

X ------> X² + 2e^-
Y^3- ------> Y + 3e<sup>-

hope this helps.</sup>
