Arrange NaCl, MgCl_(2) and AlCl_(3) in the increasing order of covalen

1.	Arrange NaCl, MgCl_(2) and AlCl_(3) in the increasing order of covalent character.
Answer» Solution :Among the ionic compounds `NACL, MgCl_(2) and AlCl_(3)` the charge of the cation INCREASES in the order `Na^(+)lt Mg^(2+)ltAl^(3+),`thus the covalent character also FOLLOWS the same order `NaCl lt MgCl_(2) lt AlCl_(3).` shows more covalent character.
