How is the number of unpaired valance electrons in an atom related to the number of bonds that the atom can form?

1 answer:

6 0

It is the same amount. For example, Carbon has 4 electrons. Putting those 4 electrons in a Lewis Dot Structure will show that they are not paired, so 4 is the number of bonds Carbon can make.
