failed

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Bond Type

Carbon dioxide (\(\mathrm{CO}_2\)) is formed from carbon (Group IVA) and oxygen (Group VIA). Both carbon and oxygen are nonmetals, which typically form covalent bonds.

Step 2: Determine the Number of Bonds

In \(\mathrm{CO}_2\), carbon forms double bonds with each of the two oxygen atoms. Therefore, there are two double covalent bonds.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{one covalent bond}}\)
