Magnesium and fluorine will produce magnesium fluoride by ionic bonding.
Type of bonding between elements in a compound chemical-chemically is chemical bonding.
it is ionic bonding because magnesium is a metal and oxygen is not. ionic bonding occurs between a metal and non-metal
Magnesium oxide has ionic bonds because it is between a Metal (Mg) and a Nonmetal (O) and Magnesium offers 2 of its electrons to Oxygen in order for Oxygen to form a full Octet (8 electrons in the valence).
A carbon-chlorine bond would be covalent but chlorine is more electronegative than carbon so the bond would be polar.
Magnesium Chloride cannot be formed by covalent bonding because there is a metal element. Covalent bonding occurs only when two or more non-metals bond; thus Hydrogen Fluoride would be formed by covalent bonding.
Magnesium and fluorine will produce magnesium fluoride by ionic bonding.
Being two non metals, phosphorous and chlorine form covalent bonds.
Magnesium is an s-block element and it forms only ionic bonds with other elements.

Magnesium carbonate, MgCO3, is an ionic compound containing magnesium ions, Mg2+, each with a 2+ charge and carbonate ions, (CO3)2-, each with a 2- charge. However, the bonding between the carbon and oxygen atoms in the (CO3)2- ion is covalent, and coordinate covalent (dative).
The short answer is no. Compounds between two halogens do occur, they are called interhalogen compounds, but they are covalent and anyway none between chlorine and bromine have been isolated. There is an ion, [BrCl2]- but its internal bonding is covalent.
Magnesium oxide has ionic bonds between magnesium and oxide ions.
The chlorine molecule is formed by two chlorine atoms. Any compound which is formed by the same non metal element is expected to be covalent.
It is ionic bonding because Na is sodium which is a metal and Cl is chlorine which is a nonmetal. Ionic Bonding happens between nonmetals and nonmetals.
