Covalent bonding
It is ionic. The dichromate ion, Cr2O72-, with the structure [O3Cr-O-CrO3]2-, consists of covalently bonded oxygen and chromium atoms (the electronegativities of Cr and O are 1.6 and 3.5, respectively, so the bonds are highly polar). This oxyanion is bonded ionically to magnesium ions, Mg2+. See Cotton and Wilkinson, Advanced Inorganic Chemistry, for more on the dichromate ion. Magnesium dichromate is the only alkaline earth dichromate that is appreciably soluble in water.
Beryllium typically forms covalent bonds with nonmetals because it is a metalloid with a low electronegativity, so it is more likely to share electrons rather than donate them to form an ionic bond.

Beryllium fluoride is an ionic compound. Beryllium, a metal, forms cations while fluoride, a nonmetal, forms anions, resulting in a transfer of electrons and the formation of ionic bonds.
Yes, beryllium nitride primarily exhibits ionic bonding due to the large electronegativity difference between beryllium and nitrogen. While there may be some covalent character in the bonding, the overall nature is primarily ionic.
Beryllium hydroxide (Be(OH)2) is considered to be ionic. Beryllium (Be) is a metal and forms an ionic bond with hydroxide (OH^-), which is a polyatomic ion.
BeF2 is a covalent compound. Beryllium (Be) is a metal and fluorine (F) is a non-metal, which results in a polar covalent bond between them.
Be2 is a covalent compound. It is formed by the sharing of electrons between the two beryllium atoms.

ionic, beryllium is a metal and oxygen is a non metal... metal and non metal are always ionic bonding

BeH2 is a covalent compound because beryllium typically forms covalent bonds with hydrogen. HCl is considered an ionic compound because hydrogen chloride typically forms an ionic bond between the hydrogen and chlorine ions.
BeBr2 is a covalent compound. Beryllium (Be) and bromine (Br) are both nonmetals, so they form a covalent bond by sharing electrons.
Beryllium bromide is considered ionic because it is formed from the transfer of electrons between beryllium (metal) and bromine (non-metal), resulting in the formation of ions with opposite charges that are attracted to each other.
