In one to two sentences, describe how the ionic compound, LiCl, would dissolve in the polar solvent, CH3COCH3.

The ability of ionic LiCl to dissolve in CH3COCH3 is because of its significant covalent character.

LiCl has a significantly covalent character according to Fajan's rules because Li^+ is highly polarizing since it has a small positive charge concentrated over a small area. It is exceptionally good at distorting a negative charge and favoring covalency.

Remember, lattice energy depends on the size of the ions. Owing to the large size of chloride ion, the hydration energy of LiCl is greater than its lattice energy so it dissolves even in a less polar solvent such as CH3COCH3.
