ionic
The simplest description is that it is ionic, and the argument is that the difference in electronegativity causes a full transfer of electrons. It is high melting solid and certainly i not molecular. As with many metal oxides the real bonding is somewhere between ionic and covalent, and this is particularly true for metals other than those in group1 and 2. I personally do not like the categorisation of compounds into ionic and molecular. Many macro crystalline solids are covalent.
CuO + CO2 -> CuCO3 CuO is copper oxide and is an ionic bond Cu(2+) and O(2-) CuCO3 is also an ionic bond, as one oxygen from copper oxide has joined with the covalently bonded carbon dioxide, CO2, to form carbonate, a polyatomic ion. Cu(2+) and CO3(2-)
CuO is copper (II) oxide, also known as cupric oxide.
Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Ionic bonds are between non-metals and metals. Copper is a metal and oxygen is a non-metal; therefore, Copper II oxide is ionically bonded.
BO is a molecular compound because it is composed of nonmetals (boron and oxygen) and forms covalent bonds.

PtO2 is ionic
This is false. Ionic compounds have higher boiling points than molecular compounds. For example, the boiling point of the ionic compounds copper(II) oxide, CuO, and sodium chloride, NaCl are 2,000 degrees C and 1,413 degrees C, respectively. The boiling point of the molecular compounds carbon tetrachloride, CCl4, and water, H2O are 76.72 degrees C and 100 degrees C, respectively.
