Covalent compounds have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms. Due to the sharing of electrons, they exhibit characteristic physical properties that include lower melting points and electrical conductivity compared to ionic compounds. The melting point is low due to weak van der Waal's forces of attractions between the covalent molecules. The force of attraction between the molecules of a covalent compound is very weak.
