How many covenants were made in the holy bible?
There are several answers to this question, depending upon how one defines 'covenant' and if they include them in a broad category or break them out. In Scripture, a Covenant is between God and His Creation. The definition broadly speaking is: A covenant is a contract between two parties, and breaking a covenant may be a violation of law that brings judgment/punishment. Some believe there are 7 Covenants (6 completed or in progress) as follows: 1. Edenic 2. Adamic 3. Noahic 4. Abrahamic 5. Mosaic or Sinatic or Old Covenant for the Israelites first 6. New Covenant including all mankind up to the Millenium 7. Fulfillment of the Davidic Covenant (Psalms 89;132)and Jeremiah 31-31-34.
What was the second covenant?
The second covenant was the one that God gave at Mount Sinai, which reinforced the covenant that God had given to Abraham, and told the Jews what they would have to do as their side of the covenant. God again promised to stay with the Jews and never to abandon them, because they were his chosen people. (see the related link)
Why did God make the first covenant when he knew he was going to replace it?
The old covenant was to show us our sins. The Bible says in Romans 7:7, "What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet." God knew in His wisdom that we needed to fully understand our inability to reach God by our own efforts. So He sent us the old covenant to show us that. No man is able to keep the old covenant perfectly, except Jesus. Galatians 5:24-25 says,"Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster."God, in His wisdom, knew we would never see that we cannot save ourselves, unless we saw just how sinful we really are. No man is able to obey perfectly every law of the old covenant. But we needed to learn that, so we would see our need for Jesus. Many things in the old covenant are a "type," or a picture, of things in the new covenant. In the old covenant they had to sacrifice an unblemished lamb for their sins. Jesus came as the Lamb of God, to take away our sins.

Why was the first covenant that God made with the Israelites not obeyed?
Jewish answer: this is a common misconception. Rather, it wasn't fully or sufficiently obeyed. There were supremely righteous Israelites - a lot of them - in every generation; but God expected more of them. Those that did not obey the commandments were simply too stubborn to accept what had been laid out before them.

How important is the covenant to Judaism?
It is at the very center of Judaism, or rather, it is the central defining feature of Judaism. First note that the Hebrew Scriptures discuss several covenants, the covenant of the rainbow made with Noah and his sons, the covenant of the parts made with Abraham are examples. However, when someone says "the covenant" they are usually asking about the covenant made between God and the Children of Israel at Siani. Jews traditionally hold that the entire Torah (quibbling about the final verses) is the product of that covenant and that all 613 commandments found in the Torah are part of this covenant.
