1.	Why FeCl3 has greater covalent character than FeCl2?
Answer» According\xa0to\xa0Fajans\xa0rule....The\xa0charge\xa0on\xa0the\xa0ion\xa0increases\xa0the\xa0covalent\xa0character\xa0also\xa0increases\xa0because.a\xa0high\xa0charge\xa0containing\xa0cation\xa0can\xa0polarise\xa0the\xa0anion\xa0more\xa0easilyas\xa0in\xa0fecl3\xa0the\xa0charge\xa0of\xa0fe\xa0is\xa0+3\xa0and\xa0the\xa0charge\xa0of\xa0fe\xa0in\xa0FeCl2\xa0is\xa0+2the\xa0charge\xa0of\xa0fe\xa0in\xa0FeCl3\xa0is\xa0more\xa0so\xa0fecl3\xa0is\xa0more\xa0covalent
