At room temperature and pressure there are gaseous, liquid and solid molecular covalent compounds. Examples
Gas: methane, CH4, ethylene, C2H4
Liquid benzene, C6H6, ethanol, C2H5OH
Solid: naphthalene, C10H8
The giant molecule covalent compounds such as silica are solids

- At room temperature ionic compounds are solids. At high temperature they melt.
- Molecular covalent compounds may be gaseous , liquid or solid ate romm temperature.
- Giant covalent molecules such as silicon dioxide are solids at room temperature and melt at high temperature.

What is the usual state of a covalent?
The usual state of a covalent compound (at room temperature) is liquid.
What is the usual state of compound at room temperature for a covalent bond?
liquids and gasesare the usual states for a covalent bond at room temperature.
What is the usual state at room temperature for a covalent compound?
liquids or gases
What is the usual state at room temperature of an ionic bond?
Ionically bonded compounds are usually solid at room temperature. (Ionic bonds themselves are non-material and do not have any of the states of matter.)
What is the usual state of matter of Americium?
Americium is a solid metal.

Americium is a solid metal.
What are ionic compound's usual state at room temperature?
Ionic compounds are generally solids at room temperature.
What state is not matter?
Plasma is probably the answer you're looking for, although it is still baryonic matter, but it is not like the usual matter found on Earth.
What is the name of the O2 covalent compound?
This is the usual formula for elemental oxygen in its gaseous state. It could also be called a "diatomic oxygen molecule."
What is the usual oxidation for oxygen?
In most compounds oxygen will have an oxidation state of -2. The only exceptions are peroxides (-1), superoxides (-1/2), and compounds in which oxygen bonds with fluorine (+1 or +2).
Why is fullerene usual?
Today fullerenes are not usually used compounds.
What is the physical state of a covalent bond at room temperature?
This is actually a rather vague question. Bonds remain the same unless the temperature is high enough to break them. The physical state of a covalent bond is one of unequally shared electrons, that's pretty much it. In a carbon dioxide molecule, for example, the shared valence electrons spend more time with the oxygen nuclei than with the carbon nucleus.
What is the usual state of hydrogen and nitrogen?
the usual state of both hydrogen and nitrogen are gas.
