No, metallic bonds only form between the atoms of a metal. Nitrogen and phosphorous are both nonmetals, and would be expected to form a covalent bond. However, I do not know if nitrogen and phosphorus bond with one another, since they are in the same group.
Nitrogen is chemically less reactive. This is because of the high stability of its molecule, N2. In N2, the two nitrogen atoms form a triple bond. This triple bond has very high bond strength, which is very difficult to break. It is because of nitrogen's small size that it is able to form pπ−pπ bonds with itself. This property is not exhibited by atoms such as phosphorus. Thus, phosphorus is more reactive than nitrogen.
Carbon can bond with many elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen.
The electrons in a nitrogen-phosphorus covalent bond are NOT shared equally because as you go down the Periodic Table, electronegativity decreases. This means since Phosphorous is below Nitrogen it has less electrons bonded to itself and more electrons bonded closer to Nitrogen due to the fact that Nitrogen is above Phosphorus and has higher electronegativity (remember electronegativity is a measure of how much an atom attracts an electron); therefore, this is why more electrons spend more time around Nitrogen.
Nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus can all form triple covalent bonds.
It would be Phosphorus (P) and chlorine (Cl).
Yes. Nitrogen and phosphorus would form a covalent bond.

Nitrogen and phosphorous will tend to form covalent bonds with each other.
Carbon can bond with many elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen.
They would have a metallic bond.

The bond between phosphorus and fluorine atoms is more polar than the bond between phosphorus and chlorine atoms.
Nitrogen pairs up, into the N2 molecule which has a very strong triple bond. There is relatively little attraction between one nitrogen molecule and another, so they move independently and form a gas. In phosphorus, the atoms do not pair up, they bond to their neighboring atoms, thus forming a network of bonding that holds the atoms together into a solid.
It would be Phosphorus (P) and chlorine (Cl).
