Arrange the following in the decreasing order of their covalent character :
(A) LiCl
(B) NaCl
(C) KCl
(D) CsCl
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- (A) > (C) > (B) > (D)
- (B) > (A) > (C) > (D)
- (A) > (B) > (C) > (D)
- (A) > (B) > (D) > (C)
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is(C): (A) > (B) > (C) > (D)
Covalent character ∝ polarising power of cation
Correct decreasing order of covalent character
LiCl > NaCl > KCl > CsCl

Concepts Used:
Types of Differential Equations
There are various types of Differential Equation, such as:
Ordinary Differential Equations:
Ordinary Differential Equations is an equation that indicates the relation of having one independent variable x, and one dependent variable y, along with some of its other derivatives.
\(F(\frac{dy}{dt},y,t) = 0\)
Partial Differential Equations:
A partial differential equation is a type, in which the equation carries many unknown variables with their partial derivatives.
Linear Differential Equations:
It is the linear polynomial equation in which derivatives of different variables exist. Linear Partial Differential Equation derivatives are partial and function is dependent on the variable.
Homogeneous Differential Equations:
When the degree of f(x,y) and g(x,y) is the same, it is known to be a homogeneous differential equation.
\(\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{a_1x + b_1y + c_1}{a_2x + b_2y + c_2}\)
