A bond that is less than 5 percent ionic is considered covalent. In covalent bonds, electrons are shared between atoms rather than transferred. This sharing of electrons results in a more balanced distribution of charge between the atoms.
Electronegativity describes "how much" an atom "wants" an electron. Some with high electronegativities will be able to "steal" electrons from other atoms and form ionic bonds. If two atoms have comparable electronegativities, then electrons will be "shared" and a covalent bond will form.
Ionic/Covalent character is a percentage on a scale showing the difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a bond. It is expressed from 0-100%, correlating to the difference in electronegativity, starting at 0% with a difference in electronegativity of 0.0 (two atoms of the same element or of the same electronegativity) and ending at 100% with a difference in electronegativity of 3.3 (Fluorine, with the highest electronegativity of 4.0, minus an atom with the lowest electronegativity of 0.7, such as Francium and Cesium). In the middle, the difference is 1.7, in which the percentage in 50%. From 50-100% (1.7-3.3) shows bonds considered more ionic. From 5-50% (0.3-1.7) shows bonds considered to be Polar-covalent bonds. And finally, from 0-5% (0.0-0.3) shows bonds considered to be Nonpolar-covalent bonds.
Chromium chloride can is either CrCl3 or CrCl6. A salt is usually uncharged since the cation (here Cr3+ or Cr6+) and the anion (Cl-) combine to neutralise the charges and form a salt. Some salts can have some covalent characteristics though, but in this case both compounds above are neutral.
Ionic bonds typically form between a metal and a nonmetal. Metals tend to lose electrons to attain a stable electron configuration, while nonmetals tend to gain electrons. This results in the formation of charged ions that are attracted to each other, creating an ionic bond.

A ionic bond will form. Magnesium will lose two electrons and the two chlorine atoms will pick up one atom each. It will become magnesium dichloride (MgCl2). I believe that a polar - covalent bond will form. .3 to1.7 difference in electronegativity is polar covalent. and when you subtract the electronegativity of the two elements you get .5 and that falls in the polar covalent area.

Covalent bonds are stronger because the shared electron is what keeps the elements held together whereas in an ionic bond one element loses an electron to another causing one element to become positively charged and the other to become negatively charged such as in the case of NaCl or table salt. Some people argue as to which is truly stronger considering different elements and arrangements may have different strength bonds but anything with an ionic bond will dissolve in water however covalent bonds do not. The previous answer that i have replaced also talked about electronegativity which has nothing to do with which bond is stronger and actually is the factor that determines whether a covalent bond is polar or non-polar.
A nonpolar covalent bond is a bond in which electrons are shared equally between two atoms, resulting in a balanced distribution of charge. This occurs when the electronegativities of the atoms are similar and there is no significant difference in their ability to attract shared electrons.
Yes, the bond between carbon and chlorine is considered to be a polar covalent bond. This is because chlorine is more electronegative than carbon, leading to an uneven distribution of electrons in the bond.
