BeCl2
because Be has only 4 electrons and has 2 valence electron
Be is the only member of II group which can not form the ionic bond so BeCl2 is a covalent compound.

BeCl2
Beryllium chloride, BeCl2
No. Beryllium has only two valence electrons and forms ionic bonds with chlorine, not covalent bonds. Beryllium atoms form 2+ ions, and chlorine atoms form 1- ions in order to form the ionic compound beryllium chloride, BeCl2.

BeCl2
BeCl2 is the molecular formula for beryllium chloride. The geometry of the chemical compound is linear and it is also nonpolar.
We know that the alkaline earth metal beryllium (Be) and the halogen chlorine (Cl) form the ionic compound beryllium chloride (BeCl2). The equation might look like this:Be + Cl2 => BeCl2
because Be has only 4 electrons and has 2 valence electron
Be is the only member of II group which can not form the ionic bond so BeCl2 is a covalent compound.
Both of the Cl ions have the same pull on the electrons; therefore, we can infer that this will be a symmetrical molecule. It will be linear because there are no free electron pairs to influence the shape. H2O is bent because of these electron interactions.
The formula is BeCl2. The name of the compound is beryllium chloride. It is a colourless solid at room temperature and is similar to ammonium chloride.
