Question

$NaCl$ is more ionic than $LiCl$.

If the statement is True enter 1 else 0.

Answer 1

According to fajan’s rule no bond is 100 % ionic but have some covalent character. It is also due to smaller size lithium has greater polarising power than sodium which is larger in size than $Li$. Hence greater covalent character in $LiCl$ than $NaCl$.

Hence $NaCl$ is more ionic than $LiC$l.
