In the case of alkali metals, the ionic character decreases in the order(a) MF > MCl > MBr > MI(b) MF > MCl > MI > MBr(c) MI > MBr > MCl > MF(d) MCl > MI > MBr > MF |

Answer» Correct option (a) MF > MCl > MBr > MI Explanation : Alkali metals are highly electropositive and halogens are electronegative. Thus for the halides of a given alkali metal, the ionic character increases with increase in electronegativity of halogens. |
