Which of the following are not ionic compounds?
(i) $KCl$
(ii) $HCl$
(iii) ${CCl}_{4}$
(iv) $NaCl$

Solution

In HCl, the hydrogen atom shares its electron with chlorine to form one covalent bond.

In the carbon tetrachloride molecule, chlorine atoms are positioned along the corners of a tetrahedron, joined to the C atom by covalent atoms.

Whereas, $KCl$ and $NaCl$ forms ionic bond.

Hence, Option B is correct.
