In an ionic bond the lectrons are transfwrred and NOT shared. The bond is electrostatic in nature.
In a polar covalent bond the electrons are shared, the more electronegative element attracts the shared electrons creating a build up of charge which forms a bond dipole.
MgCl2 is an ionic compound. there is a large difference in electronegativity between Mg and Cl.
An ionic bond is expected between K and Br.
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
If there is a slight electronegativity difference, the bond is a nonpolar covalent bond. If there is a large electronegativity difference, it is an ionic bond. If the difference is somewhere between, it is a polar covalent bond.
If the electronegativity difference between two atoms is less than 1.7, then a covalent bond is formed between the two atoms.
MgCl2 is an ionic compound. there is a large difference in electronegativity between Mg and Cl.
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
Ionic bond: the difference between electronegativities of the atoms is over 2.Covalent polar bond: the difference between electronegativities of the atoms is under 2.Covalent non-polar bond: the difference between electronegativities of the atoms is cca. zero
An ionic bond is expected between K and Br.

It depends on the difference in electronegativity between the two atoms. If the EN difference between two atoms is less than 0.5,the bond is nonpolar covalent. If the EN difference between the two atoms is between 0.5 and 1.6, the bond is polar covalent. If the EN difference between the atoms is greater than 2.0, the bond is ionic. If the EN difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, and if a metal is involved, then the bond is considered ionic. If only nonmetals are involved, the bond is considered polar covalent. Please refer to the related links.
If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is above 1.7, then ionic bond is formed. If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is below 1.7, then polar covalent bond is formed.
The ionic bond bond is based on electrostatic attraction between ions.The covalent bond is based on electrons sharing between two atoms.The hydrogen bond exist between two polar groups and is a weak bond.

It represents the boundary between what is considered to be an ionic or a covalent bond.
