Which of the following factor generally favours electrovalency? This question has multiple correct options

1. Low charge on ions
2. High charge on ions
3. Large cation and small anion
4. Small cation and large anion

Correct answer: High charge on ions

Solution

High charges on ions increase the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged species, which stabilizes ionic bonding and favors electrovalency. Low charges reduce this attraction, while size-related options mainly affect polarization and covalent character.
