Xenon is neither of those, it's monatomic.
Xenon dioxide (XeO2) is covalent.
Covalent. I had this same question and then found the answer! Hope this helps!
Covalent, because Xenon (non-metal) and Fluoride (non-metal) and the tetra is a prefix meaning four. Non-metal+non-metal= covalent bonds.
Xenon is a noble gas in with the electrone of outermost orbit are balanced than the xenon cannot make ionic bond with another element such as Oxygen because if it make an ionic bond than the electron of the outer most orbit are unstable therefore it make an covalent bond with oxygen to fill the outer most unbalance electron of oxygen by sharing electron to form (xenon oxide) (xenon dioxide) and also with floride to form (xenon difloride) etc.
Xenon is an inert monoatomic gas. It isone of the "inert" gases It does form some compounds, such as unstable covalent compounds with fluorine. It does not form compounds containing Xe ions.
