Not all the time; sometimes in compounds such as HCL there is an strong ionic bond but in compounds like CH4 Hydrogen doesn't make an ionic bond but a covalent bond.

lithium is in group one inthe Periodic Table,that means,its metallic. Its electrons inthe structure forms 'sea' over protons. Therefore mettalic bond!

not a chance. they have the same polarity +1 and both of the has 1 extra proton. none receives proton (no electron is accepted).

Yes. Ionic bonds are typically formed between a metal and non metal. Lithium is a metal; O is a non metal. They form an ionic bond.
