Answer:

A NaCl: ionic (Na is metal and Cl is not metal)

B. AIC13: ionic (Al is metal and Cl is not metal)

C. C2H3N: covalent (C, H and N are nonmetals)

D. C3H60: covalent (C and H are nonmetals)

E. BaCl2: ionic (Ba is metal and Cl is not metal)

F. CaCl2: ionic (Ca is metal and Cl is nonmetal)

Step-by-step explanation:

In ionic bonds, they are formed when there is a difference in electronegativity, between metals and nonmetals. In the case of covalent bonds, one or more pairs of electrons are shared between nonmetal compounds.
