Explanation:
Alkali metals have low first ionization energies and relatively higher second and third ionization energies because the electron have to be remover from a stable octet.
As in the given question, there is more difference in the values of first and second ionization energies i.e. the metal has 1 valence electron,
∴ formula of the compound will be MX.
