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.
