Which bond is not a pure chemical bond?

Hydrogen bonding is really not bonding, but only a polar interaction. H2 [diatomic hydrogen] is an elemental bond in which gas atoms can cohabit.

Are magnesium and fluorine ionic compounds?

An ionic bond is formed when a metal and a non-metal react. Electrons are transferred during this process. Magnesium is a metal and Fluorine is not. So, it forms an ionic bond. I don't believe there is such thing as a diatomic bond, only diatomic molecules which are 2 atoms of an element (O2, N2, etc) Metallic bonds are formed between metals. And in covalent compounds the atoms share the valence electrons.
