How do you determine if a bond is non polar covalent or polar covalent or ionic?

I believe that when you subtract the elements electronegativity in the formula if it is less than .4 it is non-polar. in-between .4-2.0 it is polar. and over 2.0 is Ionic. Not positive though.

What is the increasing ordor of electronegativity in ionic bond and polar covalent bond and non polar covalent bond?
In the increasing order, they are non polar covalent bond < polar covalent bond < ionic bond.
Is S and O ionic or covalent?
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
Is sodium chloride a polar covalent bond non polar covalent bond or an ionic bond?
Sodium chloride is ionic.
Is SI-O bond ionic polar covalent nonpolar covalent?
Polar covalent
Is Br2 an ionic or covalent?
Covalent, It's 2 non metals ( Bromine x2) sharing electrons

Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
Is MgCl2 a polar covalent non polar covalent or ionic bond?
Magnesium chloride has an ionic bond.
Is sodium chloride a polar covalent bond non polar covalent bond or an ionic bond?
Sodium chloride is ionic.
Is SI-O bond ionic polar covalent nonpolar covalent?
Polar covalent
Is F-F ionic or covalent bond?
The F-F bond (in F2) is covalent, and non polar covalent at that.
Is Br2 an ionic or covalent?
Covalent, It's 2 non metals ( Bromine x2) sharing electrons
What is N-O bond type ionic polar covalent nonpolar covalent or metallic?
polar covalent
What chemical bond store the most energy?
A covalent bond. Non-polar covalent is stronger than polar covalent as well.
Does the compound alo3 either have a covalent or ionic bond?
polar covalent
Is the bond formed between Si and C ionic polar covalent or nonpolar covalent?
The bond is polar covalent- the diffference in electronegativities is 0.65.
