Answer:

Covalent compounds have strong forces of attraction within the molecule, but the inter-molecular forces are very small due to which they are volatile. This results in the low melting and boiling point of compounds making them volatile.

Answer:

Covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points because they are made up of electrically neutral molecules. So, the force of attraction between the molecules of a covalent compound is very weak.

Explanation:

Only a small amount of heat energy is required to break these weak molecular forces. That is why covalent compound have low melting boiling points.

hope it's help u....
