Answer:

KF - ionic

NaCl - ionic

CO₂ - covalent

NH₄Br - covalent

CaSO₄ - ionic

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds that contain metals and and nonmetals.  Covalent compounds are compounds that contain only nonmetals.

For example KF has potassium (metal) and fluorine (nonmetal).  This makes it ionic.  CO₂, on the other hand, has carbon and oxygen, which are both nonmetals.  This makes it covalent.
