#"Calcium sulfide, " CaS#, exhibits an ionic bond.

Explanation:

The ionic bond is formed between #Ca^(2+)# and #S^(2-)# ions to give the same structure as is observed in #NaCl#. The ionic bond means that calcium sulfide is non-molecular, poor solubility as a consequence, and very high melting points
