Nitrogen is highly electronegative as compared to phosphorus. This causes a greater attraction of electrons towards nitrogen in NH3 than towards phosphorus in PH3. Hence, the extent of hydrogen bonding...
The chemical bonds formed between two atoms by the sharing; of electrons between them is known as a covalent bond. The sharing of electrons between the two atoms takes place...
Carbon has 4 electrons in its outermost shell, and needs to gain or lose 4 electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Losing or gaining 4 electrons is not possible due...

(a) Due to smaller size and high poalrising power of Li+ ion ,LiCl is more covalent than KCl.
(b) Small cation Li+ ion highly polarizes large anion I-, LiI is more...
