No, they would form an ionic bond.
Na(+) and F(-) form NaF sodium fluoride, an ionic bond.
The bond between F and Cl is a polar covalent bond. Fluorine is very electronegative and Cl is not as much. The difference is large enough to be considered polar.
A metal as Alkali metals and a non metal as Halogens may form an ionic bond as Na and Cl (NaCl), K and F (KF).
Yes, they form a polar covalent bond e.g. in NF3
No, they would form an ionic bond.

ionic bond because Na is metal and F is non metal.
A metal as Alkali metals and a non metal as Halogens may form an ionic bond as Na and Cl (NaCl), K and F (KF).
The cation,li +and the anion,F -form the ionic compound,LiF
Yes, they form a polar covalent bond e.g. in NF3
The cation,Na +and the anion,F -form the ionicly bonded compound,sodium fluoride.
Cl and F form ionic bond when they combine with metals and form covalent bond when combined with non-metals.
Halogens form both ionic and covalent bonds.
It is an ionic bond. Two sodium atoms give up their single valence electrons to two fluorine atoms. This causes the sodium atom to become positively charged and the fluorine atoms to become negatively charged. The ionic bond is formed by the electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. 2Na + F2 --> Na+ + 2F- --> 2[Na]+[F]-
F (fluorine) will form an anion.
