Covalent, because Xenon (non-metal) and Fluoride (non-metal) and the tetra is a prefix meaning four. Non-metal+non-metal= covalent bonds.
It is a covalent compound. In this the hybridisation of xenon is sp3d2
Xenon tetrafluoride.
Xenon dioxide (XeO2) is covalent.
Silicon tetrafluoride is covalent.
Xenon is neither of those, it's monatomic.
Xe is the element xenon, which is a single element, not a compound. A compound, by definition is composed of two or more elements. Xenon rarely forms compounds at all, but in fact it can combine with some other elements such as fluorine.

Xenon- atoms Xenon tetrafluoride- molecules
The Correct Chemical Name is: xenon tetrafluoride
Covalent. I had this same question and then found the answer! Hope this helps!
SiF4 is a polar covalent compound
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 tetrafluoride is XeF4
XeF4
