Can't tell you, because they really DO exist: in methane (CH4) and other alkanes all C atoms have four covalent bonds with H and/or other C atoms.

Is carbon tetra-fluoride a covalent or ionic compound?
Covalent
A bond in which atoms share electrons is called a?
The type of bond in which two atoms share electrons is called a covalent bond.
Is a peptide bond a covalent bond?
Yes, a peptide bond is a covalent bond.
What types of intermolecular forces exist in molecules NO?
NO has a covalent bond. Electrons are shared.
Does covalent bond exist between atoms MgF2?
That is ionic bonding as well.
What bond exist in diamond?
covalent bond
Is covalent bond inorganic?
Covalent bond can exist in any type of compounds.
What type of bond exist between the H-O?
A covalent bond
What kind of bond would exist with Chlorine and Hydrogen?
Covalent bond
What is a typical property of a substance formed with covalent bonds?
The covalent compounds do not exist as ions but they exist as moleculesThey exist at room temperature, as liquids or gases. However, a few compounds also exist in the solid state e.g. urea, sugar, etc.The melting and boiling points of covalent compounds are generally lowCovalent compounds are generally insoluble or less soluble in water and in other polar solventsThese are poor conductors of electricity in the fused or dissolved stateSince the covalent bond is localized in between the nuclei of atoms, it is directional in natureA covalent bond can be formed in different ways. When a bond is formed by mutual sharing of one pair of electrons it is known as a 'single covalent bond', or simply 'a single bond'. When a bond is developed due to mutual sharing of more than one pairs of electrons it is termed as 'multiple covalent bond'. Such bonds can be a double covalent bond or a triple covalent bond.
What type of bond is OF?
The bond between O and F would be a covalent bond (dative/coordinate), if in fact OF existed. More likely it would exist as OF2 (still covalent bonds).
Why carbon can not form fourth covalent bond?
With itself. Molecular bonding theory and the bond order show a sigma pi discrepancy ( bonding/anti-bonding ) that disallows this tetra-covalent carbon to carbon interaction. Google this for a fuller explanation.
Is carbon tetra-fluoride a covalent or ionic compound?

Is carbon-tetra flouride covalent in nature?
Yes. It is covalent

Is a peptide bond a covalent bond?
Yes, a peptide bond is a covalent bond.
What types of intermolecular forces exist in molecules NO?
NO has a covalent bond. Electrons are shared.
