electronegativity increaseas as one goes up from the bottom of the Periodic Table lithium and Hydrogen have very different electronagativity values. lithim must donate a electron to hydrogen to obtain a noble gas configuration as well as hydrogen will also accept electron from lithium to achieve the configuration of a noble gas. with that being said Lih is an ionic bond.

Is AlPO4 ionic purely covalent or covalent?
AlPO4 is considered to have both ionic and covalent characteristics. The Al-P bonds are more ionic due to the electronegativity difference between aluminum and phosphorus, while the P-O bonds are more covalent. Therefore, AlPO4 is best described as having a mixture of ionic and covalent bonding.
