Yes, galena (PbS) has ionic bonds. Lead (Pb) is a metal, while sulfur (S) is a non-metal, leading to the formation of ionic bonds between the positively charged lead ions and the negatively charged sulfur ions in the compound.

Which is stronger ionic or covalent?

Ionic bonds are generally stronger than covalent bonds. Ionic bonds are formed between ions with opposite charges, resulting in a strong electrostatic attraction. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, which are generally not as strong as the electrostatic forces in ionic bonds.

Metallic bonds are similar to what kind of bonds?

Metallic bonds are similar to highly delocalised bonds found in giant covalent molecules, such as those found in graphite. Other substances with a metallic appearance such as galena lead sulfide, PbS and iron pyrites, FeS2 although usually considered at high school level to be ionic are in fact semiconductors implying covalency and delocalisation.
