Polarization | Polarizability | Covalent Character | Fajan's Rule | Chemistry

This video discusses the polarization of ionic compounds. More polarization means more covalent character of ionic compounds.
Cations have polarizing power and anions have higher polarizability.
Polarizing power depends on ionic size and charge. Ionic size decreases with increasing charge, thus polarizing power increases. Therefore, ionic compounds get more covalent character.
Polarizability depends on the size on anions. More polarizability means more covalent character shows by ionic compounds.
