    Phosphorus and Oxygen are both non-metals; this means that this is a covalent bond, but as the difference in electronegativity (EN) is between 0.5 and 1.7, this could also be described as a polar-covalent bond depending on the grade of Chemistry you are in.

    EN (P) = 2.1

    EN (O) = 3.5

    The difference in EN is 1.4
