Question

Which of the following statements align with the postulates and applications of Fajan's rules?

Answer: A,B,C

💡 Solution & Explanation

Increased polarization leads to higher covalent character, which typically *lowers* the melting point of the compound (e.g., $SnCl_4$ is a liquid while $SnCl_2$ is a solid). Statements A, B, and C accurately reflect Fajan's rules regarding polarizability and polarizing power.
