    In the case of alkali metals, the covalent character decreases in the order             [AIPMT (S) 2009]

    A)  \[MCl>Ml>MBr>MF\]

    B)  \[MF>MCl>MBr>Ml\]

    C)  \[MF>MCl>MI>MBr\]

    D)  \[Al>MBr>MCl>MF\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea According to Fajan's rule,
    Covalent character \[{{E}^{o}}=0.337V\]
    \[C{{u}^{2+}}+{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}C{{u}^{+}},\]
    In the given options, cation is same but anions are different. Among halogens the order of size is\[{{E}^{o}}=0.153V\]
    \[Cu+{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}Cu,\]Order of covalent character is
    \[{{N}_{2}}+3{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2N{{H}_{3}},\]
