Whay type of compound is HI
Answers
Yes the compound is covalent!
Here, Hydrogen is an electropositive substance (but it is a non metal) and the Iodine is an electronegative (non metal) element. So, the bond formed between an electropositive (non metal) and a non metal is always not ionic however it seems to be ionic.
The bond between HI is a polar covalent bond. It is because Hydrogen is electropositive in nature in comparison to Iodine. So, the bonding is covalent but it has partial polarity in charges.

Aa Lo jii Tohda answer...
Hydrogen iodide (HI) is a diatomic molecule and hydrogen halide. Aqueous solutions of HI are known as hydroiodic acid or hydriodic acid, a strong acid. Hydrogen iodide and hydroiodic acid are, however, different in that the former is a gas under standard conditions, whereas the other is an aqueous solution of said gas.
