covalent b/c they are both nonmetals. A covalent bond is between two elements on the right side of the periodic table, an ionic bond is between the left and right side.
P2O5: Phosphorus Pentoxide CO: Carbon Monoxide
Tetraphosphorus Decoxide P4O10 is held by Van der Waals forces, which are weak intermolecular attractions between molecules. Thereby, it is a molecular compound, not covalent.
Dinitrogen pentoxide.
Phosphorus Pentoxide
PCl5 is covalent in the vapour phase with a trigonal biyramidal shape. It is ionic in the solid consisting of PCl4+ PCl6- In solution it can be covalent or ionic depending on the solvent.
This is an ionic compound.
