Covalent bonds come as singles, doubles, and triples. Single bonds share 2 electrons; doubles, 4; and triples, 6. Examples would be fluorine gas (F2), oxygen (O2), and nitrogen (N2), respectively.

How many electrons covalent bond have?

A covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons between atoms. Each atom contributes one or more electrons to the bond, which are shared between the participating atoms. The number of electrons shared in a covalent bond depends on the atoms involved and the type of bond being formed.

How many electrons are being shared in a single covalent bond?

Only two atoms are sharing a bond, even it's double or triple bond. But just that the number of shared electrons are different. There are two electrons shared in a single bond, four in a double bond and six in a triple bond.
