oxygen normally forms a convalent bond with one or two other oxygen atoms.
as well as oxygen atoms forming oxygen molecules, oxygen atoms tend to form bonds with most of the other elements to form oxides.
oxygen atoms on there own are rare.
as for phosphorous.........

∙ 11y agoThis is a covalent bond found in the oxides P2O5 and P2O3 and in the many ions conatining P-O bonds such as the orthophosphate ion PO43-
Note that the bonding generally involves both sigma and pi bonding.

Would nitrogen and phosphorus from a metallic bond?
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.
Would sulfur and oxygen form a ionic molecular or acidic chemical bond?
Sulfur and oxygen will form polar covalent bond
Can two oxygen atoms form an ionic bond?
No, the bond would be nonpolar covalent
Which element will form an ionic bond with phosphorus?
boron
Would Copper and Oxygen form a covalent bond?
yes
Would nitrogen and phosphorus form a covalent bond?
Yes. Nitrogen and phosphorus would form a covalent bond.
What type of chemical bond is Mg3PO2?
The bond between Ag ,silver and phosphate is the ionic bond, but within phosphate ion oxygen and phosphorus form covalent bond ( one oxygen bond is coordinate covalent).

What is the nature of the p o bond in phosphorus pentoxide p2o5?
The bond between phosphorus and oxygen are actually covalent. Eventhough those bonds are also with slight ionic characters. It violently reacts with water to form phosphoric acid.
What type of bond will form between sodium and phosphorus?
