D two elemdnts are Boron having a valence of 2 and Aluminium having a valance of 3 wen d combine wuch wen d interchange so D is d Ans Y2X3 nt Y3X2

x is oxygen wt atomic number of 8 and valence of 2 yl y is aluminium wt atomic number of 13 nd valence of 3 wen dey combine dey will form Al2O3 so d ans is D=y2X3
