Answer #1

I believe you want to ask about molybdenum, Mo, right? I will assume its Mo, since I really have no other way to figure out.

Mo occurs in Group VI, period 5 of the periodic table and is a transition element. Transition elements are usually metallic in character and hence exhibit ionic bonding. Therefore, Mo will also show ionic bonding when it binds to O in oxides. However, there is substantial pi bonding between Mo cation and an oxyanion involving the vacant d orbitals on the metal and the filled p orbitals of O. This pi bonding results in covalent bonding and hence, Mo is expected to show both ionic and covalent bonding.
