The correct order of increasing covalent character is :

A

`LiCl lt NaCl lt BeCl_(2)`

B

`BeCl_(2) lt NaCl lt LiCl`

C

`NaCl lt LiCl lt BeCl`

D

`BeCl_(2) lt LiCl lt NaCl`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Order of polarising power `Be^(++) gt Li^(+) gt Na^(+)`
Hence order of covalent character `BeCl_(2) gt LiCl gt NaCl`.

According to Fajans'rules, the percentage of covalent character in an ionic compound increase if the cation is highly charged or small in size and the anion is large or cation has pseudoinert gas configuration. As a result of the increased covalent character, solubility in less polar solvent increases and the melting point decreases. The correct order of decreasing covalent character is
