As I originally stated in my original answer, the bonds in a molecule of OF2 are covalent. The electronegativity difference between them, according to the Pauling values is 0.54, which indicates a slightly polar covalent bond, in which Fluorine has the higher electronegativity value.
Based on it's electronegative difference the kind of bond present in the compound OF2 is a Polar covalent bond.
Without the lone pairs of electrons, it would be F -- O -- F
OF2 is covalent.
OF2 = Bent structure
What is the name of OF2? The correct answer is oxygen difluoride.

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).

of2
Formula: O2F2
yes. with 2 lone pairs, OF2 is a dipole interaction
Since the covalent bond between sulfur and oxygen is polar, dipole dipole attractions are present as intermolecular forces.
OF2 is oxygen difluoride, a very powerful oxidizer.
