Among AgCl and Agl, which is more covalent?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which compound, AgCl or AgI, is more covalent, we can apply Fajan's rules. Here's a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand Fajan's Rules Fajan's rules help predict whether a bond is more ionic or covalent based on the sizes of the ions involved. According to these rules, the covalent character of a bond increases when: - The cation is small. - The anion is large. ### Step 2: Identify the Ions in AgCl and AgI ...
