Using the Periodic Table above that means any compound that contains an element shown in orange will contain ionic (electrovalent) bonds. Compounds that form between two non-metals (or between non-metals and metalloids) will contain covalent bonds. Using the Periodic Table above that means any compound that contains element shown in yellow or green will contain covalent bonds.
Porpoises are a group of fully aquatic marine mammals, that are sometimes referred to as mereswine, all of which are classified under the family Phocoenidae, parvorder Odontoceti (toothed whales). There are 8 extant species of porpoise.
The English word porpoise comes from the French pourpois (old French porpais, 12th century), which is from Medieval Latin porcopiscus, which is a compound of porcus (pig) and piscus (fish). The old word is probably a loan-translation of a Germanic word, cf. Danish marsvin and Middle Dutch mereswijn (sea swine).
