To solve the question, we will analyze each pair of compounds based on the property mentioned and determine which one has the higher value. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Pair (i): HF vs HCl (Polar character)** - **Analysis**: The polar character of a molecule is determined by the difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms. Fluorine (F) is more electronegative than chlorine (Cl). - **Conclusion**: HF has a higher polar character than HCl due to the greater electronegativity difference. - **Answer**: **HF** ...
