Ionic bonding would occur between potassium and chlorine, resulting in the formation of potassium chloride. Potassium, with one electron in its outer shell, will donate this electron to chlorine, which requires one more electron to fill its outer shell. This transfer of electrons leads to the formation of ions with opposite charges that are attracted to each other, creating the ionic bond.
No, covalent bonding does not occur between ions like Na+ and Cl-. In the case of sodium chloride (NaCl), ionic bonding occurs where electrons are transferred from sodium to chlorine, resulting in the formation of an ionic compound.
Ionic bonding occurs between atoms that have significantly different electronegativities, resulting in the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. This typically occurs between metals and nonmetals, such as sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) in sodium chloride (NaCl).
A calcium atom will readily form Ca2+ ions while a chlorine atom will readily form Cl- atoms. Thus, ionic bonding is the only bonding that can occur between a calcium and a chlorine atom. The equation for the reaction is as follows: Ca + Cl2 --> CaCl2
No - there would be a reaction though if Chlorine and Potassium Iodide were mixed
Yes, KF (potassium fluoride) contains ionic bonds, not covalent bonds. Ionic bonds form between a metal (potassium) and a nonmetal (fluorine), resulting in the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. Covalent bonds occur between nonmetals, where electrons are shared.

no is not a chemical reaction
The short answer is no. Compounds between two halogens do occur, they are called interhalogen compounds, but they are covalent and anyway none between chlorine and bromine have been isolated. There is an ion, [BrCl2]- but its internal bonding is covalent.
You think probable to a chlorine oxide or to a ion containing O and Cl.

Metallic bonding occurs between copper atoms. Only copper is a metal and has the characteristics needed for metallic bonding. Metallic bonding occurs between atoms with low electronegativities (low tendency to attract electrons from other atoms) and low ionisation energies (little energy required to remove electrons from the atoms). The low tendency for the metallic atoms to keep their electrons allow their electrons to be shared between the atoms, which thus become cations. The cations tend to be very closely-packed; they are not repulsed by their similar positive charges, but attracted to the electrons flowing freely between the cations. Metallic bonding therefore occurs between copper atoms, which have low electronegativity and ionisation energy. Chlorine atoms have some of the highest electronegativity and ionisation energy of all elements, and thus do not exhibit metallic bonding.

between the nitrogen bases of the two strands of DNA
Sodium and chlorine react with each other to produce sodium chloride, or table salt:2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl
Ionic bonds are formed by electrostatic attraction.
