You may have gotten this from the Fundamentals Of Chemistry textbook/booklet in the ionic compounds section. The answer is actually in there but here it is again,
Particles that are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction by positively charged ions.

A molecule is the representative particle of a molecular compound. Molecules don't have representative particles, they are one.
When yo mama is covalent- all dem babies is covalent
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing valence electrons between atoms, mostly non metals.
The representative unit for ionic compounds is known at "the formula unit".
formula unit
The molecule.
Its an atom.
A molecule.
Particles formed from the covalent bonding of atoms are called molecules.
Covalent compounds have lower melting point and boiling point compared to ionic compounds since their intermolecular forces are weak. covalent compounds do not conduct electricity unlike the ionic compounds since they do not have any charged particles They also have strong bonds within the molecules. so they do not react with other compounds easily. Whereas ionic compounds are more reactive.
Covalent compounds are formed by covalent bonds.
It depends on the compound. nonpolar covalent compounds will generally be soluble whie polar covalent compounds will not be.
covalent compounds --------- It is inadequate to discuss about a telephone in terms of ionic and covalent compounds.
Ionic compounds do not contain molecules. The representative particle of an ionic compound is called a formula unit. Molecules are the representative particles of a covalent compound.

Covalent compounds can be solids, liquids or gases.
Petrol is a mixture of organic compounds. These organic compounds have covalent bonds.
Covalent compounds have shared electrons between atoms.
Living things are made up of both ionic and covalent compounds.
"Shares electrons" is a characteristic of covalent bonds, which form covalent compounds.
Organic compounds have covalent bonds, and these compounds are the basis of life on Earth; the human body is composed of them.
