Understand that a covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons between two atoms to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Recall that a single covalent bond specifically involves the sharing of one pair of electrons between the two atoms.
Since one pair consists of two electrons, a single covalent bond shares exactly two electrons.
Double and triple covalent bonds involve sharing two and three pairs of electrons respectively, but this problem focuses on a single bond.
Therefore, the number of electrons shared in a single covalent bond is two.
