Answer:
The answer to your question is a) Covalent b) Ionic
Explanation:
Data
Kind of bond between C - C
kind of bond between Mg -Cl
Process
1.- Look for the electronegativities of these elements
Carbon electronegativity = 2.55
Magnesium electronegativity = 1.31
Chlorine electronegativity = 3.16
2.- Calculate the difference of electronegativities
a) C - C = 2.55 - 2.55 = 0
b) Mg - Cl = 3.16 - 1.31 = 1.85
3.- Kind of bond
a) It's covalent because the difference of electronegativity was lower than
1.5.
b) It's ionic because the difference of electronegativity was higher than 1.5.
