Some ionic compounds contain polyatomic ions. These are ions that consist of two or more atoms held together by covalent bond like in a molecule, except that it has an overall electrical charge.
One common polyatomic ion is the carbonate ion, CO32- It will combine with other ions to form ionic compounds such as calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3)
There are countless compounds which consist of both ionic and covalent bonds. An example is Sodium Nitrate. It's formula is NaNO3 . The bond between the Sodium ion(Na+) and the Nitrate ion (NO3-) is ionic. The bonds between the Nitrogen atom and the Oxygen atoms in the nitrate ion are covalent.
Since chlorine and fluorine are both nonmetals with an affinity for electrons (or in other words, they have a high electronegativity) they could not form an ionic bond, but could form a covalent bond. It takes a metal and a nonmetal to form an ionic bond.
BeBr2 is a covalent compound. Beryllium (Be) and bromine (Br) are both nonmetals, so they form a covalent bond by sharing electrons.
An example of a compound that contains both ionic and covalent bonds is ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). In this compound, the bond between ammonium (NH4+) and chloride (Cl-) ions is ionic, while the bonds within the ammonium ion (between nitrogen and hydrogen atoms) are covalent.
XeF6 is a covalent compound. The bond formed between xenon and fluorine atoms is a covalent bond because both atoms share electrons to achieve stability, rather than transferring electrons as in ionic bonds.
No - sodium chloride is ONLY an ionic compound.

N2O3 has both ionic and covalent characteristics. The bond between nitrogen and oxygen is mainly covalent since they share electrons, while the overall structure of the compound exhibits some ionic character due to the nitrogen having a formal positive charge.
I think so. Here covalent and there ionic.
Sodium hydroxide is a good example of a compound with both ionic and molecular bonds because the bond between the sodium ion and hydroxide ion is ionic, but the bond between the oxygen atom and the hydrogen atom in the hydroxide ion itself is covalent. Sodium hydroxide is typically referred to as an ionic compound because the ionic bond dominates its chemistry.
No, bromine and carbon would not form an ionic compound. Carbon typically forms covalent bonds and bromine can also form both covalent and ionic bonds, depending on the element it is reacting with. In this case, a covalent bond would be more likely between bromine and carbon.
An example of a compound that contains both ionic and covalent bonds is ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). In this compound, the bond between the ammonium ion (NH4+) and the chloride ion (Cl-) is ionic, while the bonds within the ammonium ion itself (N–H) are covalent.
Boron and Iodine are elements but in a reaction they would form neither as a covaelent bond and an ionic bond is comepletely separate.Basically, neither can form copounds as covaelent and ionic are bonds not compounds.
