The greater the electronegativity difference between the two bonded atoms, greater is the ionic character of the bond.
bonding between atoms with an electronegativity difference of 1.7or less has an ionic character of 50 % or less If difference of electronegativities of two atoms is between 0.5 to 1.7 then bond shows ionic character higher is this difference higher is ionic character of bond.
If there is a slight electronegativity difference, the bond is a nonpolar covalent bond. If there is a large electronegativity difference, it is an ionic bond. If the difference is somewhere between, it is a polar covalent bond.
Increase in the difference in electronegativity along a bond increases the percent ionic character of the bond (how similar it is to an ionic bond). Small to intermediate differences would result in polar covalent bonds and large differences leads to the formation of an ionic bond rather than a covalent bond.
Mostly ionic in character and formed between a metal and non metal

Covalent bonds have ionic "character" when they are polar. The more polar, (greater the electronegativity difference) the more ionic character.
If there is a slight electronegativity difference, the bond is a nonpolar covalent bond. If there is a large electronegativity difference, it is an ionic bond. If the difference is somewhere between, it is a polar covalent bond.

Hydrogen bond.

You think probable to the value of electronegativity.
Mostly ionic in character and formed between a metal and non metal
Generally a difference of 1.4 in electronegativity would result in an ionic bond.
Polar covalent bond.
