Arrange `NaCl, MgCl_(2) and AlCl_(3)` in the increasing order of covalent character.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Among the ionic compounds `NaCl, MgCl_(2) and AlCl_(3)` the charge of the cation increases in the order `Na^(+)lt Mg^(2+)ltAl^(3+),` thus the covalent character also follows the same order `NaCl lt MgCl_(2) lt AlCl_(3).` shows more covalent character.
