It is Ionic because it's a Metal with a Nonmetal.
The ionic compound SnO2 is called tin(IV) oxide, also known as stannic oxide or dioxide.
SnO2 (tin oxide) consists of both ionic and covalent bonds. The tin ion forms ionic bonds with oxygen ions, while the oxygen atoms share electrons covalently within the oxide ion.
SnO2 has total valence electron of 16e.......... since Sn is the least electronegative then it has to be in the middle of the molecular structure....O = Sn = O
Cr2O3 is an ionic compound. It consists of chromium ions (Cr3+) and oxide ions (O2-) held together by ionic bonds.
