Covalent
Hydrogen chloride is covalent. It is formed by a covalent bond between hydrogen and chlorine atoms, where they share electrons to achieve stability. An ionic bond involves the transfer of electrons between a metal and a non-metal.
HCl (Hydrogen Chloride) is a covalent compound and forms a covalent bond. However, if water is added to hydrogen chloride, it forms hydrochloric acid which is an ionic compound that has ionic bonds.
In potassium chloride, the bond formed between potassium and chloride is an ionic bond, meaning electrons are transferred from potassium to chloride. In hydrogen chloride, the bond formed between hydrogen and chlorine is a covalent bond, meaning electrons are shared between hydrogen and chlorine. Ionic bonds typically form between metals and nonmetals, while covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.
Hydrogen Chloride (the gas) has covalent bonds, but Hydrochloric acid forms ionic bonds. As to why this occurs, I am clueless
Ammonium chloride has both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between the ammonium ion (NH4+) and the chloride ion (Cl-) is ionic, while the bonds within the ammonium ion itself (between nitrogen and hydrogen) are covalent.

No, but the bond in sodium chloride is covalent.
In potassium chloride, the bond formed between potassium and chloride is an ionic bond, meaning electrons are transferred from potassium to chloride. In hydrogen chloride, the bond formed between hydrogen and chlorine is a covalent bond, meaning electrons are shared between hydrogen and chlorine. Ionic bonds typically form between metals and nonmetals, while covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.

BeH2 is a covalent compound because beryllium typically forms covalent bonds with hydrogen. HCl is considered an ionic compound because hydrogen chloride typically forms an ionic bond between the hydrogen and chlorine ions.
Potassium chloride (KCl) has an ionic chemical bond.
Magnesium chloride has an ionic bond.
Nitrogen trichloride is a covalent compound.
