Ionic bonds are formed between atoms with large differences in electronegativity.
Generally a difference of 1.4 in electronegativity would result in an ionic bond.
Typically, a metal and a nonmetal will form an ionic bond. You can also go by electronegativity. The difference in electronegativity can be used to predict the type of bond between atoms. Elements with electronegativity differences between 1.6 and 2.0 form ionic bonds if a metal is involved. Elements with electronegativity differences of 2.0 or greater form ionic bonds.
Increase in the difference in electronegativity along a bond increases the percent ionic character of the bond (how similar it is to an ionic bond). Small to intermediate differences would result in polar covalent bonds and large differences leads to the formation of an ionic bond rather than a covalent bond.
electronegativity. the greater the difference in electronegativity of the elements the greater the likelihood of them forming ionic bonds.

the difference between the electronegativity values of sodium and bromine is 1.9 , which is relatively high in general , high differences suggest ionic bonds.

If this difference is under 2 the bond is covalent; if the difference is over 2 the bond is ionic.
electronegativity. the greater the difference in electronegativity of the elements the greater the likelihood of them forming ionic bonds.
No. The bonds are all covalent. there is insufficient difference in electronegativity
The difference in electronegativity between two elements bonded into a compound by ionic bonds is almost always greater than the difference in electronegativity between two elements bonded into a compound by covalent bonds.
If the electronegativity difference is less than 2, then covalent bonds are formed. If the electronegativity difference is greater than 2, then ionic bonds are formed.
The difference in electronegativity between sulfur and oxygen is not sufficient to form ionic bonds.
Ionic Bonds-form when two atoms have a large difference in electronegativity. Covalent Bonds-form when two atoms have a very small difference in electronegativity. Polar Covalent Bonds- form when two elements bond with a moderate difference in electronegativity. Fall between ionic and covalent. Metallic Bonds-form in and between metals
