Xenon is neither of those, it's monatomic.
Xenon dioxide (XeO2) is covalent.
Sulfur can form ionic compounds (eg SO2), but Xenon is a noble gas and does not react to form compounds.
It is Xe.
If you are referring to a Lewis Dot Structure, Xenon has Xe surrounded by eight dots.

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.

The ionic notation for Bromine is Br-. It gains one electron to form Br-
That is the standard notation.
That is the standard notation.
That IS the standard notation.
