Acetic acid is a covalent molecule. In aqueous medium, it dissociates into ions in order to liberate protons. On the other hand, almost every acetate salts are ionic compounds.
The acetate groups are comprised of covalent bonds, but they are ionically bonded with the calcium.
In lithium acetate, there are ionic bonds between positive lithium ions and negative acetate ions, and within the acetate ions themselves, there are covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen and hydrogen.
Covalent
Sulfur and Oxygen are both non-metals so their chemical bond is a covalent one.

In lithium acetate, there are ionic bonds between positive lithium ions and negative acetate ions, and within the acetate ions themselves, there are covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen and hydrogen.
Covalent
Yes, it contains both. The sodium forms an ionic bond with the one oxygen with a single bond (not double) with the carbon, becoming the cation (positive charge). This oxygen and all other atoms in the acetate form covalent bonds.
Sulfur and Oxygen are both non-metals so their chemical bond is a covalent one.

There are two types of bonding in ammonium sulphate. In ammonium ion, ntrogen and hydrogen are bonded by covalent bonds (intermolecular / Van Der Waals forces) as both of the elements are non-metals. Between ammonium and sulphate, both ions, they are joined together by ionic bonds.
The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent.
No, Covalent
Lithium acetate (CH3COOLi) is an ionic compound.
There are three main types of chemical bonds. The main types are; ionic bonding, covalent bonding and polar covalent bonding.
