Answer:
There is one single covalent bond between two carbon atoms.
Explanation:
We know that sharing of electrons form covalent bonds.
If we look upon K,L,M ,N shells of the carbon and hydrogen atoms.
We found that Hydrogen is having only 
electron in K shell.
And Carbon on the other hand is having 
electrons in K shell and 
electrons in L shell.
So carbon have valence electrons,and it can share bonds with any relevant atom to complete its octet.
And Hydrogen requires electron to complete its doublet.
Alkane general formula 
For ethane 
Carbon atom is shared by 
Hydrogen.
The remaining one electron 
of carbon will be shared with another carbon atom.
An image of the sharing of electrons attached below,
Hence we have only covalent bond between the two.
54. fluorine
55. oxygen
56. they have the same number of protons
57. nucleus 3
Explanation:
54. The element represented by the nucleus 1 have 9 protons and 9 neutrons. The atomic number of the element is equal to the number of protons = 9, so the element is fluorine.
55. The element represented by the nucleus 2 have 8 protons and 10 neutrons. The atomic number of the element is equal to the number of protons = 8, so the element is oxygen.
56. nucleus 2 contains 8 protons and 10 neutrons
nucleus 4 contains 8 protons and 11 neutrons.
The atoms that have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons are called isotopes.
57. nucleus 3 have 10 protons and 10 neutrons and correspond to neon. Neon have 10 electrons (equal to the number of protons) and have the electronic configuration 1s² 2s² 2p⁸. Because all the electrons shells are filled with electrons, neon have a stable electron configuration.
