Question:
Ionic character of the covalent bonds in the compounds Cl2, HCl, NaCl, NaF follows the order
Ionic character of the covalent bonds in the compounds Cl2, HCl, NaCl, NaF follows the order
Updated On: Jan 23, 2025
- $Cl_2 > NaCl > HCl > NaF$
- $HCl>Cl_2 > NaF > NaCl$
- $HCl > NaCl > NaF > Cl_2$
- $NaF > NaCl > HCl > Cl_2$
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Ionic character depends on the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms. NaF has the highest ionic character due to the large difference between sodium and fluorine.
