Aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) is primarily considered an ionic compound. It consists of aluminum cations (Al³⁺) and oxide anions (O²⁻) held together by strong electrostatic forces. While it does exhibit some covalent character due to the polarization of the oxide ion by the aluminum ion, its overall structure and bonding are predominantly ionic.
