What valence electrons is the least delocalized from potassium chloride silver metal HF and chloride gas?

In the list we have potassium chloride, an ionic compound where electrons are transferred to form ions; silver metal which has delocalised electrons that give rise to electrical conductivity; hydrogen fluoride a covalent molecule where an electron pair is shared; chlorine gas which a covalent molecule with a shared air. The least delocalised is the ionic compound. The most is the metal.
