MgO is magnesium oxide so it is an ionic bond.
The molecule that contains a covalent bond is CN- (cyanide). MgO is an ionic compound, HF is a polar covalent molecule, and HCl is also a polar covalent molecule.
No. It is ionic because the electronegativity difference is greater than 1.7 (2.3).
In the molecules HF and CN, the bond between the atoms is covalent. MgO and LiCl contain ionic bonds, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
Ionic. because a metal(Mg) + a non-metal (O).
No, MgO forms an ionic bond because magnesium (Mg) loses electrons to oxygen (O), resulting in the formation of Mg2+ cations and O2- anions. This complete transfer of electrons creates an electrostatic attraction between the ions, making MgO an ionic compound.

covalent
CH4 (methane) does not have an ionic bond. It is a covalent compound where the carbon and hydrogen atoms share electrons to form bonds. The other substances listed (NaCl, NaF, MgO) have ionic bonds where electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
NO is covalent.
NO is covalent.
a covalent bond is a bond between two nonmetals. the electrons are "shared" between the two atoms. example: H2O. an ionic bond forms between a metal and nonmetal. in an ionic bond, the electrons aren't shared, but are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal, leaving the metal with a positive charge and the nonmetal with a negative charge. examples: MgO, NaCl.
MgO is ionic because it is a bond between a metal(Mg) and a non-metal(O).
The bond is covalent.
