Yes. All have very strong bonds between the atoms, but much weaker forces holding the molecules together.When one of these substances melts or boils, it is these weak 'intermolecular forces' that break, not the strong covalent bonds within the molecule.
Covalent bonded compounds have generally lower melting and boiling points, are not hard, are less conductive etc.
Compounds that exhibit hydrogen bonding typically have higher boiling points due to the strong intermolecular forces associated with these bonds. Hydrogen bonds occur when hydrogen is covalently bonded to highly electronegative atoms like oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine, creating a significant dipole moment. This strong attraction between molecules requires more energy (in the form of heat) to overcome, resulting in higher boiling points compared to compounds that do not engage in hydrogen bonding.
Well,its because the particles that constitute solids are closer together hence the forces of attraction are greater rising the boiling point and melting points are raised as the heat try to break the bonds
Molecular compounds typically have lower boiling points compared to ionic compounds because of weaker intermolecular forces between molecules. The boiling points of molecular compounds increase with increasing molecular size and polarity. However, they generally have lower boiling points compared to ionic compounds due to the nature of the forces holding the molecules together.
In fractional distillation, a group of compounds with different boiling points are separated based on their different boiling points. As the mixture is heated, the compounds vaporize at different temperatures and are collected in separate fractions according to their boiling points. This allows for the isolation of individual compounds from a complex mixture.

Metallically bonded compounds have high melting and boiling points due to the strength of their bonds. Metallic bonds are very strong and therefore take a lot of energy to break, which could be heat. This is why lots of heat energy is needed to break down each individual metallic bond
'Covalently bonded' = 'Non polar' compounds have much LOWER boiling points than polar compounds and 'ion bonded' = 'Crystallic' compounds.(Compare: (all at STP)H2S (gas, linear, covalent H-S bonds) andH2O (liquid, non-linear, polar H-O bonds) andNa2O (solid, ionic, crystal, tetrahedrical(Na+) +cubic(O2-)

All different covalent compounds have different boiling points.
The boiling points of volatile compounds will vary depending on the specific compound. Generally, volatile compounds have low boiling points, typically below 100°C. Some examples of volatile compounds with low boiling points include ethanol (78.3°C), acetone (56°C), and diethyl ether (34.6°C).
The boiling points of compounds can be determined by considering the strength of the intermolecular forces between molecules. Compounds with stronger intermolecular forces, such as hydrogen bonding or dipole-dipole interactions, tend to have higher boiling points. Additionally, the size and shape of the molecules can also affect the boiling point. By analyzing these factors, one can predict and compare the boiling points of different compounds.

Because they are not pure compounds !
The differences in melting and boiling points between ionic and covalent compounds are due to the strength of the intermolecular forces present. Ionic compounds have strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions, resulting in higher melting and boiling points. Covalent compounds have weaker intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces or dipole-dipole interactions, leading to lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds.
