Answer» SOLUTION :Increasing order of ionic character :`N_(2) lt CIF_(2) lt SO_(2) lt K_(2) O ltLiF` EXPLANATION : Ionic character of non BONDING `prop` difference of electronegativity.  In `SO_(2)" &" CIF_(3)` difference of electronegativity is some 1.0. In `SO_(2), S^(2+) and "in" CIF_(3) Cl^(+)` ions are there in which `S^(2+)` is smaller than `Cl^(+)`. Electronegativities of `O^(-2)` (1.40) and `F^(-1)` is (1.36) While `O^(2-)` is larger in size than `F^(-1)`. As the positive ION is smaller & negative ion islarger l, d covalent character is more and ionic character is less. `SO_(2)` is ionic more then `CIF_(3)`. |
