Potassium oxide, or K2O, is another example of an ionic compound. You may have noticed that unlike the sodium chloride example, which has one sodium ion for each chlorine ion, this time there are two potassium atoms for each oxygen. This is because the charges have to be balanced for the ionic compound.
Best Answer: K2SO4 is an example of a compound that contains both ionic and covalent bonds... the sulfate ion is held together with covalent bonds... and the potassium ions are ionically bonded to the sulfate ions.
