Deacon · Answer 1

They are all covalent compounds as they are made up of nonmetals. Ionic compounds are made up of a nonmetal and a metal. Some of the compounds are organic because they contain carbon so they cannot all be classified as inorganic. CH4, which is methane is reactive so this makes D false.

The correct answer is B) covalent bonds.
