LiCl < NaCl < BeCl₂ is the correct sequence.

Explanation:

The covalency of the bond character is dependent on the difference in the electronegativity of the participating atoms.

In the given options, the cations are the lithium, sodium and beryllium.

If we look at their electronegativy, the most electronegative is beryllium and least is lithium.

The participating anion is chloride in all the cases.

The lesser the electronegativity difference, the more is the covalent character.

So the most covalent compound is beryllium chloride and least is lithium chloride.
