Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

 

                Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bond

                

                Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bond

            

                Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

 

For Br₂;

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.00          (Non Polar Covalent Bond)


For MgS;

                    E.N of Sulfur               =   2.58

                    E.N of Magnesium      =   1.31

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                  1.27          (Ionic Bond)


For SO₂;

                    E.N of Oxygen      =   3.44

                    E.N of Sulfur          =   2.58

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.86          (Polar Covalent Bond)


For KF;

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                    E.N of Potassium      =   0.82

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                3.16          (Ionic Bond)

Result: The Bonds in Br₂ and SO₂ are Covalent in Nature.
