Copper ions and bromide ions form to make an ionic compound, CuBr.

CuF2 is an ionic compound because copper (Cu) is a metal and fluorine (F) is a nonmetal. Metal atoms tend to lose electrons, while nonmetal atoms tend to gain electrons to form ionic bonds. In CuF2, copper loses two electrons to fluorine atoms to form the compound.
The ionic compound CuF2 is called copper(II) fluoride.
CuF2 is an ionic compound. Copper (Cu) is a metal and fluorine (F) is a nonmetal, leading to the transfer of electrons from copper to fluorine, resulting in the formation of ions (Cu2+ and 2F-) held together by electrostatic forces.
It is ionic
Bases can be both ionic and covalent in nature.
Br2 is a covalent compound. It consists of two bromine atoms sharing electrons to form a covalent bond.
