The electronegativity of H and CI are 2....

The electronegativity of `H` and CI are 2.1 and 3.0 respectively. The correct statement `(s)` about the nature of `HCI` is/are:

A

`HCI` is 17% ionic

B

83% ionic

C

50% ionic

D

100% ionic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
% ionic character
`= 16 (X_(A) - X_(B)) +3.5 (X_(A) - X_(B))^(2)`
`=16 (3.0 - 2.1) +3.5 (3.0 - 2.1)^(2)`
`= 17.235`
`= 17%`
