HI because the degree of iconic character can be determined based on differences in electronegativity which for HI is. 5. Also, Hydrogen Iodide is made up of Hydrogen Halide and a Diatomic Molecule, both of which are non-metals. HF is 1.9, HCL is. 9, and HBR is. 7; hence HI being the correct answer.
