  4. HF

1 Answer


Correct option is D

Ionic character depends upon, electro-negativity difference between cation and anion of compound. As these difference increases, ionic character increases. Larger the size of cation and smaller the size of anion, more is the electro negativity difference and more is the ionic character. So,

The Ionic character of elements can be ordered as

HF > HCL > HBr > HI
