- Covalent bonds between atoms are quite strong, but attractions between molecules/compounds, or intermolecular forces, can be relatively weak. Covalent compounds generally have low boiling and melting points, and are found in all three physical states at room temperature.
- Covalent compounds do not conduct electricity; this is because covalent compounds do not have charged particles capable of transporting electrons.
- Lewis theory also accounts for bond length; the stronger the bond and the more electrons shared, the shorter the bond length is.
