Sodium hydroxide is an ionic compound which disassociates in to Na+ and OH- ions in solution.
ionic
Ionic bonding. Atomic orbital interaction is energetically unfavourable between Na and H. This is due to the large difference in electronegativity between the atoms.
Within Hydrogen carbonates HCO3- the bonding is covalent but between Na+ and HCO3- the bonding is ionic.

Sodium carbonate is ionic as are all sodium compounds
it is ionic ofcoarse .. as ionic is metal (sodium) and a non metal (carbonate) bonding together
sodium on its own is neither it is simply an element. When in a compound it will always be ionic as sodium is a metal
i would think ionic due to the fact that they are a metal and a non-metal
The chemical formula of sodium hydrogen carbonate is NaHCO3.Sodium hydrogen carbonate is an ionic compound.

Yes. Sodium hydrogen carbonate, more commonly called sodium bicarbonate, is a compound of sodium, hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen.

It contains both covalent and ionic bonds. In carbonate ion (CO32-) there are covalent bonds (C-O, C-O and C=O). Between carbonate ion (CO32-) and 2 sodium ions (Na-, Na-) there are ionic bonds. Na2CO3 is a salt.
Yes and No. The 2 Na CO3 bonds are ionic. but the C-O bonds are covalent
No, but the bond in sodium chloride is covalent.
Ionic
If you just mean compounds that are alkaline (basic), they can be either. Sodium carbonate and potassium hydroxide are ionic bases, while ammonia and phosphine are covalent bases.
