Subjective Type

Arrange the below molecules in order of increasing ionic character.$$LiF$$ $$, \ \displaystyle K_{2}O $$, $$ \displaystyle N_{2} $$, $$ \displaystyle SO_{2} $$ and $$ \displaystyle ClF_{3} $$

Solution

The increasing order of ionic character is $$\displaystyle N_2 < SO_2 < ClF_3 < K_2O < LiF $$. As the electronegativity difference increases, the ionic character increases.
