Covalent bonds are between two non-metals while ionic bonds are made between a metal and a non-metal. Chlorine is a non-metal, so a covalent bond forms in a diatomic molecule of chlorine.

What kind of bond do hydrogen and clorine make?
Though they dissociate into ions in an aqueou solution, a bond between hydrogen and chlorine is covalent.
Why do sodium and chlorine make ionic bonds?
because the bond between them have greater polarity than that of a covalent bond.
What kind of bond does carbon and chlorine make?
It makes a covalent bond. This means a bond between a metal and non-metal element.
Does Na and Cl make a polar covalent bond?
No. Sodium and Chlorine form an Ionic bond because the difference of their electronegativities equal 2.1. Use this: Nonpolar-covalent bond - 0-0.39 Polar-covalent bond - 0.4-1.79 Ionic bond - 1.8+
What type of bond does hydrogen and fluorine make?
Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.

What kind of bond would chlorine make?
Chlorine can form both ionic and covalent bonds, with metals and non-metals respectively.
Does sulfur make covalent bond or inoic bond?
covalent bonds
What type of bond does hydrogen and fluorine make?
Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.
When nitrogen and oxygen combine do they make a ionic or covalent bond?
The bond is covalent.
What bond does BCl3 make?
its covalent bond
How many covalent bonds can chloride make?
The most common number is one, chlorine achieves the octet, as in the HCl molecule. However there are chlorine oxides and chlorine fluoride compounds where more than one covalent bond id formed. One example is chlorine trioxide with 6, another is chorine pentafluoride with 5.
What kind of elements are used in a covalent bond?
A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals.
What type of bond will phosphorus make ionic or covalent?
Phosphorous will make a covalent bond, for example in the widely used neutral ligand, triphenyl phosphorous (PPh3).Some of the covalent complexes are charged, for example phosphate (PO4-3) however the phosphorous itself is covalently bound.
