In an ionic compound the metal donates electrons to the non-metal. In a molecular compound the two non-metals will share the electrons. In Chromium(III)Chloride, chromium (metal) donates 1 electron to each of the three chlorines(non-metal), so therefore it is an ionic compound. If you have another question like this one just determine what your elements are; metal or non-metal.
