The properties of simple covalent substances such as chlorine, oxygen and water are that it has low melting and boiling points. This is because the weak intermolecular forces break down easily. Secondly, another property is the simple covalent substances are non-conductive therefore the substances with a simple molecular structure do not conduct electricity. This is because they do not have any free electrons or an overall electric charge.
No. Chlorine an oxygen will form covalent compounds.
The covalent bond in diatomic oxygen is a double bond and is stronger than the single covalent bond in diatomic chlorine.
The covalent bond in diatomic oxygen is a double bond and is stronger than the single covalent bond in diatomic chlorine.
Hydrogen MOLECULE (H2),,Oxygen (O2), Chlorine(Cl2)
The electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and for fluorine it is 3.98. The difference in electronegativities is 0.54, so the bond between fluorine and oxygen is polar covalent.

No, Oxygen forms covalent bonds
The covalent bond in diatomic oxygen is a double bond and is stronger than the single covalent bond in diatomic chlorine.
Sulfur oxides are covalent compounds.
Oxygen forms lots of covalent bonds, typically with carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, or chlorine, or with other oxygen atoms in the case of the diatomic oxygen molecule.
Oxygen and chlorine are each elements, not compounds. They combined to form a number of covalent compounds because they are both nonmetals.

The electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and for fluorine it is 3.98. The difference in electronegativities is 0.54, so the bond between fluorine and oxygen is polar covalent.
Yes, the halogens, particularly fluorine and chlorine are strong oxidizers like oxygen. Substances can "burn" in these gases and produce a flame.
Oxygen does not form a covalent bond with chloride, but oxygen does form covalent bonds with chlorine in the polyatomic ions perchlorate (ClO4-1), chlorate (ClO3-1), chlorite (ClO2-1), and hypochlorite (ClO-1).
yes - chlorate, hypochlorite, etc etc etc.
