As covalent bond is not a stronger bond, so compounds exhibiting covalent bonds have low melting and boiling point than that of ionic bond.

Covalent bonds are formed due to sharing of electron pairs. So it is easier to break down the bond with small amount of energy. The atoms break by taking back their own electron.
