Hydrogen bromide is covalent. Pure HBr has a melting point of -114.20C and a boiling point of -85.10C. The molecule has a dipole moment which is due to the poalr nature of the chemical bond. In water HBr is a strong acid, hydrobromic acid, and is pretty well completely dissocaiated.

∙ 12y agoIt is covalent as they are both non-metals. Hydrogen needs one electron to complete its outer shells, and so does Bromine, so they bond together and hydrogen shares its electron to fill Bromine's outer shell, and Bromine shares one electron with Hydrogen to fill its outer shell. Hydrogen now has 2 electrons (fills the first shell), and Bromine now has 36 electrons - 2 in the first shell, 8 in the second shell, 8 in the third shell, and 18 in the fourth shell (full shells)
