Question: The correct sequence of increasing covalent character is represented by
Options:
A) $ LiCl<NaCl<BeCl_2 $
B) $ BeCl_2<NaCl<LiCl $
C) $ NaCl<LiCl<BeCl_2 $
D) $ BeCl_2<LiCl<NaCl $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
[c] order of polarising power $ B{{e}^{++}}>L{{i}^{+}}>N{{a}^{+}} $ Hence order of covalent character $ BeCl_2>LiCl>NaCl $
