Quizplus · Accepted Answer

K2O contains ionic bonds because potassium (K) is a metal and oxygen (O) is a non-metal, which results in the transfer of electrons from K to O and the formation of ionic bonds. CH4, Cl2, and OF2 contain covalent bonds, where electrons are shared between atoms rather than transferred.
