MCQ
Which of the following has covalent bond
  • A
    $N{a_2}S$
  • $AlC{l_3}$
  • C
    $NaH$
  • D
    $MgC{l_2}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$AlC{l_3}$
(b) We know that $A{l^{ + 3}}$ cation is smaller than $N{a^ + }$ (because of greater nuclear change) According to Fajan's rule, small cation polarise anion upto greater extent. Hence $A{l^{3 + }}$ polarise $C{l^ - }$ ion upto greater extent, therefore $AlC{l_3}$ has covalent bond between $Al$ and $Cl$ atoms.
