Want this question answered?
The bond is polar covalent- the diffference in electronegativities is 0.65.
The bond between the C and O is covalent. The bond between the CO- ion and the Mg3+ is ionic.
Covalent- the small difference in electronegativity is the reason.
Ionic Well it is at least partially covalent (H-C). However, according to my OChem book it's 100% covalent but the C-Li bond is strongly polar. Apparently a bond is generally ionic if the electronegative difference between the two atoms is greater than 1.9 C =2.5 LI=1.0 2.5-1.0<1.9 therefore the bond is covalent.
Covalent bonds: C-H and C-C Polar covalent bonds: C-O and O-H Ionic bonds: None

covalent b/c they are both nonmetals. A covalent bond is between two elements on the right side of the periodic table, an ionic bond is between the left and right side.

covalent - both C and O are non-metals, and the electronegativity difference is not sufficient to form an ionic bond.
ionic bond
Typically carbon forms a covalent, not ionic bond.
Carbon tetrahydride is an unusual name for methane. Because carbon and hydrogen have similar electronegativities the bond between C-H is covalent.
C-H is a covalent bond because the electronegativity varies by less than 0.5 units
Ibuprofen has covalent bonds like general organic substance. Ibuprofen has both pure covalent and polar covalent bonds. The bond C-H , which the electronegativity comes out to be 0.4, so it's pure covalet. The bond between C-O, and O-H , it is polar covalent.
