If two bromine atoms form a bond with each other, the bond is covalent, not metallic.
Potassium and bromine form the ionic compound potassium bromide with the chemical formula KBr.
An ionic bond will form between potassium (K) and bromine (Br). This compound, potassium bromide, KBr, is a salt, which is, in general, the combination of a metal (a Group 1 or Group 2 element) and a halogen (a Group 17 element). All salts are bonded ionically.
Sodium and bromine
Yes. Potassium is a metal and Bromine is a nonmetal, therefore they would make an ionic bond, as there is a complete transfer of electrons between the atoms.

The potassium cation,K +and the bromine anionBr -combine to form the ionic compoundKBrwhich is potassium bromide.

A covalent bond.
Fluorine Chlorine Bromine
K20Br20 is just KBr. The individual molecules for that form from these elements are not a chain of 20 potassium atoms and 20 bromine atoms linked together, they are a single potassium atom and a single bromine atom bonded.
In any diatomic element it is always a covalent bond.
Nitrogen and bromine will form a covalent bond; they are both nonmetals.
