Why is Calcium Chloride covalent?

When Ca and Cl combine with each other, the electron transfer takes place from Calcium atom to Chlorine atom (i.e from Ca to Cl). In other words, the Calcium atom (Ca) loses 2 electrons and the Chlorine atoms (Cl) gains 1-1 electrons. Due to this, the Calcium becomes a positive ion (Ca 2+) and Chlorine becomes a negative ion (Cl –).
