What type of bond is present in ${\mathrm{F}}_2$?

Fluorine belongs to group 17^th and has 7 valence electrons. It needs only one electron to fill its octet. Two fluorine atoms equally share one electron each or shared electron pairs to form a covalent bond. Thus, bond in ${\text{F}}_{\text{2}}$ is a covalent bond.

Therefore, the correct option is: (1)
