    The correct order of increasing ionic character is:

    A)  \[BeC{{l}_{2}}<CaC{{l}_{2}}<MgC{{l}_{2}}<BaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[BeC{{l}_{2}}<MgC{{l}_{2}}<CaC{{l}_{2}}<BaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[BeC{{l}_{2}}<BaC{{l}_{2}}<MgC{{l}_{2}}<CaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[BaC{{l}_{2}}<CaC{{l}_{2}}<MgC{{l}_{2}}<BeC{{l}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: The ionic character of halide increases down the group due to decrease in ionisation energy. \[\therefore \] The correct order of increasing ionic character is \[BeC{{l}_{2}}<MgC{{l}_{2}}<CaC{{l}_{2}}<BaC{{l}_{2}}\]
