given the ionic formula X2O What is the charge of X?

Answer 1

there some ambiguity with this question.
If by X u mean a halogen, then charge will vary. The same applies if it is an inorganic element... Insufficient data!!

Answer 2

I would think X is +1 whether X is a halogen or not. Since it is an ionic compound, it is more than likely that X is a group I element and not a halogen (Na2O, K2O, Li2O, etc.)
