Helium and iodine, carbon and fluorine, and hydrogen and oxygen are three pairs of ions.
Two atoms sharing three pairs of electrons have a triple bond.
True. Atoms of some elements, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, can form triple bonds by sharing three pairs of electrons with other atoms. This type of bonding allows for the formation of stable molecules, such as nitrogen gas (N₂), where each nitrogen atom shares three pairs of electrons with the other.
You think probable to covalent bonding.
In the Lewis structure of a phosphate ion (PO₄³⁻), there are no lone pairs of electrons on the phosphorus atom, as it forms four bonds with oxygen atoms. However, each of the three oxygen atoms that carries a negative charge has two lone pairs of electrons. Thus, the total number of lone pairs in the phosphate ion is six (three oxygen atoms each contributing two lone pairs).
No, trigonal pyramidal geometry typically represents a molecule with three bonded atoms and one lone pair on the central atom. In contrast, if a molecule has two bonded atoms and three lone pairs on the central atom, it would adopt a linear geometry due to the arrangement of electron pairs. Thus, trigonal pyramidal does not apply in this case.

yeap!

There are a infinitely growing number of bond pairs between atoms.

There are exactly three electron pairs attached to the Boron atom, each one of them bonded to a chlorine atom as well.
True. Nitrogen can share three pairs of electrons and has a lone pair of electrons for a total of eight in it's valence shell
In iodine (I2), each iodine atom has three lone pairs of electrons. Since there are two iodine atoms in the molecule, I2 has a total of six lone pairs. However, these lone pairs are localized on each individual iodine atom and do not participate in bonding between the two atoms.
