Well, you've mystified me. I have a PhD in chemistry, and this is the first I've ever heard of a "giant ionic and covalent structure". Could you try being a little more specific?

I can think of materials that might qualify ... zeolites, for example, which are partly ionic and partly covalent and might form extensive networks ... but these are compounds, not elements.

Is titanium tetrachloride giant ionic?

Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is a covalent compound, not a giant ionic compound. It is composed of covalent bonds between the titanium and chlorine atoms, rather than the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal as seen in ionic compounds.


Are silicon compounds ionic or covalent?

Silicon compounds can exhibit both ionic and covalent bonding. Compounds such as silicon dioxide (SiO2) have a covalent structure, while compounds like silicon carbide (SiC) can have more ionic character. The nature of bonding in silicon compounds depends on the electronegativity difference between silicon and the other elements involved.
