This is a characteristic of a polar covalent bond.
2 - 1.7 = 0.3 Not much difference. This implies that these two elements will form a nonpolar covalent bond with each other. Greater than 1.4 variance and you are probably looking at an ionic bonding. Less than 1.4 is covalent, but too great a variance that does not exceed 1.4 is likely a poplar covalent bonding.
If you look at the periodic table electronegativity increases as you move to the right and up.
The difference between a polar and non-polar molecule is in terms of sharing electrons. In the case of a polar molecule, electrons are not shared in an equal manner among the atoms that made the bond. But in the case of a non-polar molecule, electrons are shared in an equal manner among the atoms that made the bond.
The valence of strontium is 2+.The electronegativity of strontium is 0,95.
Chromium has three valences: 2, 3, and 6.
It represents the boundary between what is considered to be an ionic or a covalent bond.

If the electronegativity difference is less than 2, then covalent bonds are formed. If the electronegativity difference is greater than 2, then ionic bonds are formed.
Yes. Fluorine has an electronegativity of 4 and Boron has an electronegativity of 2. If the difference in the electronegativity of two elements is greater than 1.8, then it is ionic.

I believe it is if the difference in electronegativity is > 1.
If this difference is under 2 the bond is covalent; if the difference is over 2 the bond is ionic.
A electronegativity difference of about 2 between the elements is considered a prerequisite for an ionic bond. Figure 2 is arbitrary and different authorities have slightly different views.
