Vedclass · Answer

(A) Ionic character depends on the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms. $KCl$ and $BaCl_2$ are typical ionic compounds formed between metals and non-metals. $C_6H_5NH_3^+Cl^-$ is an ionic salt (anilinium chloride). $C_2H_5Cl$ (ethyl chloride) is a covalent organic compound where the $C-Cl$ bond is polar covalent but possesses the least ionic character among the given options due to the small electronegativity difference between $C$ $(2.5)$ and $Cl$ $(3.0)$.
