No. Chlorine is diatomic, meaning two atoms will naturally pair up (Cl2). Because they share electrons equally, it is a non-polar covalent molecule. (It's not a compound either - compounds are between at least two different elements).

Is fluoride gas is a covalent compound?
Non polar covalent bond between two fluorine gas in F2.
What is the name of the following binary molecular compound 'CO'?
CO is a polar covalent compound. It is covalent because the compound is made up of nonmetals. It is polar because the electronegativity difference is 1. Answer: Polar Covalent Compound
Is chlorine gas ionic or covalent?
Covalent
What kind of bonding does hydrogen and chloride form?
If Hydrogen gas is chemically combined with Chlorine gas, Hydrogen chloride is formed: H2 (g) + Cl2 (g) ---> 2 HCl (g) The bond is covalent (the atoms share electrons) and polar (Chlorine is more electronegative). Hydrogen chloride gas will dissolve in water and disassociate into ions: HCl ---> H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
Is chlorine gas a compound?
No. Chlorine gas is 100% chlorine and nothing else.
Is chlorine an ionic compound or a covalent compound?
Chlorine gas (Cl2) is covalent.
Is fluoride gas is a covalent compound?
Non polar covalent bond between two fluorine gas in F2.
What is the name of the following binary molecular compound 'CO'?
CO is a polar covalent compound. It is covalent because the compound is made up of nonmetals. It is polar because the electronegativity difference is 1. Answer: Polar Covalent Compound
Is urea an organic compound or inorganic?
Nitrogen in its elemental form is covalently bonded. A free element cannot be ionically bonded.
Is chlorine gas ionic or covalent?
Covalent

Is laughing gas a polar or covalent bond?
It is polar
Is chlorine gas a compound?
No. Chlorine gas is 100% chlorine and nothing else.
What type of bond does chlorine gas?
Covalent.
What is the covalent bound of phosgene?
COCl2 is a covalent compound, a gas.
Why Nacl is ionic compound while chlorine gas is covalent compound?
Ionic bonds are between a metal and a nonmetal. Covalent bonds are between a non-metal and a non-metal. Na (metal) + Cl (non-metal) = ionic Cl (non-metal) + Cl (nonmetal) = covalent
Is the covalent bond between chlorine atoms in a molecule of chlorine gas polar?
No. Bonds between atoms of the same element are nonpolar. The electronegativity difference between the two atoms is zero, which indicates that the bond is nonpolar.
