Naphthalene is an organic compound with a chemical formula of C10H8. As you can see, it is solely made up of 2 non-metals. When 2 non-metals bond, it is likely to be covalent bonding because they do not form ions easily.
The above compound exists as a white crystalline solid that is commonly used in mothballs. It goes through sublimation.
