AlF3 is soluble but not very. With two electro-negative heavy-weights like Al and F we would expect to see some covalent behavior.

Is AlCl3 an ionic bond?

alcl3 is not ionic... its co-valent because the polarizing power of al is so high that it attracts the cl electron cloud with such intensity that it causes electron sharing... chlorine is easy to polarize due to weak effective nuclear charge as it has more itnrvning electrons... ( i hope it helped =))


Compare and contrast the bond properties of N2 and AlCl3?

N2 is a covalent molecule with a triple bond between two nitrogen atoms, creating a strong and stable bond. AlCl3 is an ionic compound formed by the transfer of electrons from aluminum to chlorine atoms, creating an electrostatic attraction between the ions. N2 has a nonpolar covalent bond due to equal sharing of electrons, while AlCl3 has ionic bonds with a large electronegativity difference between aluminum and chlorine atoms.


Is AlCl3 a polar covalent bond?

First, the symbol for any chemical element properly begins with a capital, not a lower case letter. Second, assuming the formula is rectified to AlCl3, it is the formula for a chemical compound, and no chemical compound is any kind of chemical bond: A compound has bonds, or contains bonds, or illustrates bonding. With that out of the way, yes, the compound properly represented by the formula AlCl3 does indeed contain polar covalent bonds.
