No, it is a molecular compound. If it was ionic, the ratio of the subscripts-"2" for Nitrogen and "4" for Oxygen; (2:4)- would have to be reduced to the lowest whole number ratio, which is 1:2. Also, both Nitrogen and Oxygen are nonmetals. All ionic compounds have metals in them, so it definitely not a ionic compound.

No, it's a covalent compound. It would be exceedingly unusual for a compound containing only one kind of atom to be ionic.
