An atom can make a number of covalent bonds equal to the number of electrons it needs to fill its outer shell
A hydrogen atom will typically form two covalent bonds because hydrogen has two electrons to share in a bond.
A carbon atom can form 4 single covalent bonds
Covalent bonds are usually between a non-metal and another non-metal. Ionic bonds are usually between a metal and a non-metal. Since gold is a metal it will make ionic bonds not covalent.

Covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons.
Carbon is tetra-valent meaning it can form 4 covalent bonds
A carbon atom can form 4 single covalent bonds
Covalent bonds between carbon atoms; simple, double or triple.
It would form an ionic bond. The atom with 7 electrons is cation and the atom with 1 is an anion.
Hydrogen bonds with hydrogen bond acceptor atoms such as Oxygen. Covalent bonds with nearly anything.
Covalent bonds are usually between a non-metal and another non-metal. Ionic bonds are usually between a metal and a non-metal. Since gold is a metal it will make ionic bonds not covalent.

it can make covalent bonds!
A non-metal and a non-metal form covalent bonds.
Sub atomic articles cannot make covalent bonds as atoms do.
Carbon typically forms covalent bonds. It is rare for it to form ionic bonds.
metallic, ionic, and covalent bonds
The elements that make covalent bonds are non-metal and non-metal chemicals
