Use the periodic table to identify what type of chemical bond is involved in each of these compounds: NaF,NO2, CBr4, and MgS. Explain your reasoning.

NaF has a metal and nonmetal which means it is an ionic bond

NO2 has 2 nometals so it is a covalent bond

CBr has 2 nonmetals so covalent

MgS has a metal and a nonmetal so ionic

Just remember metals are on the left side of P table and nonmetals on the right.
