If the electronegativity difference between the metal and the non-metal is below 1.7 according to Pauling's scale, then it will form covalent bond. Grignard reagents and diethylzinc can be given as some examples.
Silver , Ag, is a metal. Ithas metallic bonds. It forms ionic and covalent compounds.
Polonium is a metal. It generally forms covalent compounds.
Nearly always covalent. There are however metal carbides in which the carbon forms an ionic bond.
no. carbon generally forms covalent bond. but carbon does form ionic bond with metal ions as in carbides, carbonates, bicarbonates (though the number of covalent compounds of carbon are more)
Covalent bonds are between two non-metals while ionic bonds are made between a metal and a non-metal. Chlorine is a non-metal, so a covalent bond forms in a diatomic molecule of chlorine.

Water molecules form covalent bonds, because they are non-metal compounds. If you mean the bonds within the water molecules themselves, they are Hydrogen bonds.
Nearly always covalent. There are however metal carbides in which the carbon forms an ionic bond.
Carbon is a non metal.It forms covalent bonds with other elements.

Oxygen can form both metallic and covalent bonds, depending on the specific elements it interacts with and the conditions under which the bonding occurs. Covalent Bonds: In its most common form, oxygen forms covalent bonds with other nonmetals. For example, in a molecule like oxygen gas (O2), two oxygen atoms share electrons through covalent bonds. This sharing of electrons creates a stable molecule. Metallic Bonds: Oxygen can also form metallic bonds with certain metals. Metallic bonding occurs when electrons are free to move throughout a metal lattice, creating a "sea" of electrons that are shared by all the atoms in the metal. Oxygen can be a part of such a metallic lattice in compounds known as metal oxides. For example, in rust (iron oxide), oxygen forms a metallic bond with iron atoms. So, to sum it up, oxygen primarily forms covalent bonds with nonmetals and metallic bonds with some metals in the context of metal oxides.
An ionic covalent bond forms when a metal bonds to a non-metal that is bonded to another non-metal. One such as this would be LiOH. The Oxygen and Hydrogen form a covalent bond and the Lithium to the Hydroxide forms an ionic bond.
A non-metal and a non-metal form covalent bonds.
The ionic bonds differ from covalent bonds in the following aspect: ionic bond is basically metal + non-metal while covalent bond is basically non metal and non metal.
Nitrogen forms a diatomic molecule, or N2 Covalent bonds form between non-metals and non-metals Ionic bonds form between non-metals and metals. Because nitrogen is a non-metal and bonds with itself it forms a covalent bond.
