Why isn't Hydrogen chloride an ionic compound?

HCl is a covalent compound not an ionic compound because , it is formed by sharing of one electron each by Hydrogen and Chlorine, thus forming a single covalent bond.

If a hydrogen atom is neutral, it must also have  one electron. an oxygen atom (o) has an atomic number of eight (8). this means a neutral oxygen atom has eight protons and eight electrons. the element actium (ac) has an atomic number of 89, so it has 89 protons and 89 electrons in a neutral atom

Theoretical temperature at which molecules stop moving and no more heat can be removed from the object. kelvin: absolute zero degrees. none of the above.
