How many covalent bonds are predicted for each atom? atoms; p, se, i, n, c , b

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are defined as the bonds which are formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms. They are usually formed by non-metals.

The number of covalent bonds are predicted by the number of valence electrons.

Elements belonging to Period 3 and above will form covalent bonds same as the number of valence electron because of the presence of d-orbitals.

Elements belonging to period 2 will form covalent bonds = (8 - number of valence electrons)

For the given elements:

This element has 5 valence electrons and will form 5 covalent bonds.

This element has 6 valence electrons will form 6 covalent bonds.

This element has 7 valence electrons will form 7 covalent bonds.

This element has 5 valence electrons. It will form (8 - 5) = 3 covalent bonds.

This element has 4 valence electrons. It will form (8 - 4) = 4 covalent bonds.

This element has 3 valence electrons. It will form (8 - 3) = 5 covalent bonds.
