Lye is sodium hydroxide and is and ionic compound.
It is an ionic compound.
Sodium hydroxide has ionic bonds. A compound never is any kind of bond.
An ionic bond is where electrons are transferred from one to the other, but a covalent bond is where the electrons are 'shared'.
they are both since calcuim hydroxide(Ca) is ionic, and oxygen hydrogen is covalent
The bonds between calcium and hydroxide in calcium hydroxide are ionic, and the bonds between oxygen and hydrogen are covalent.
Bonds aren't strictly covalent or ionic - it's a whole grey area. CaOH2 probably has bonds with both covalent and ionic properties.
