When two carbon atoms are covalently bonded together, they try to achieve an octet structure so their electrons are 4 in number while each of them donates their remaining 2 so they end up sharing 4.

A stable atom would need 8 valence electrons, so since its sharing, lets subtract. 

8 - 6 = 2

It needs only 2 valence electrons. 

Answer: 2

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

an estimate of the strength of a bond.

Explanation:

The bond order is given as;

1/2(number of bonding electrons - number of anti bonding electrons)

The bond order tells us about the strength of bond. As the bond order increases, so does the strength of the bond because atoms involved in bonding come closer to each other as the bond length decreases.

Hence, bond order is an index of bond strength. Triple bonds are stronger than double bonds which are stronger than single bonds.
