Answer:

Four.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon form four chemical bonds because it contains four electrons in its outer shell. It forms covalent bond means by sharing electrons with other element instead of ionic bond because carbon needs very high amount of energy for adding electrons in its outermost shell for attaining stability so that's why carbon use covalent bond for stability instead of ionic bond.
