Answer:
The atoms of X lose
electrons whereas the atoms of Y gain electrons. Thus, there is transfer of
electrons from atoms of X to atoms of Y. The bond formed by the transfer of
electrons is called ionic bond. Therefore, the nature of bond in the compound
XY is ionic.

(i) The
compound will be soluble in water.
(ii)The compound will conduct electricity when dissolved in
water or in molten state.
