Detailed Solution

In organic solvents, beryllium halides dissolve. due to the fact that beryllium halides have some covalent bonds. As a result, it is soluble in organic solvents.

Beryllium halides are ionic in character. Because In contrast to the other members of the Group, beryllium has a relatively high electronegativity.

In comparison to magnesium and the others, it does so more firmly draw a bonding pair of electrons to itself. The beryllium must surrender its electrons in order for an ionic connection to form.
