Yeah, I think it's polar covalent, that is assuming that the F- ions are bonded to Cl. Since Fluorine has greater electronegativity, the electrons will spend more time closer to Fluorine than to Chlorine.

If it's the cis molecule, it's polar. If it's the trans molecule, it's non-polar since the dipoles cancel out.

It is a linear molecule Cl-C=-C-Cl so its dipole moment becomes zero and it behaves as a non polar molecule.

Yes, CF2Br2 is considered to be polar. However, it's not as polar as CH2F2 and as CH2Br2.
