The correct sequence of increasing covalent character is represented by
Options
(a) LiCl < NaCl < BeCl₂
(b) BeCl₂ < LiCl < NaCl
(c) NaCl < LiCl < BeCl₂
(d) BeCl₂ < NaCl < LiCl
Correct Answer:
NaCl < LiCl < BeCl₂
Explanation:
As difference of electronegativity increases % ionic character increases and covalentcharacter decreases i.e. negativity differences decreases covalent character increases.
Further greater the charge on the cation more will be its covalent character.Be has maximum (+2) charge.
