Answer:

36 valence electrons

Explanation:

Given CBr₂COHNH₂ => Br₂C = C - O - H

                                                    |

                                             H - N - H

#Valence e⁻s  = 2Br + 2C + 3H + 1N + 1O = 2(7) + 2(4) + 3(1) + 1(5) + 1(6)

    = 14 + 8 + 3 + 5 + 6 = 36 valence electrons

Addendum ...

#Bonded e⁻s =  2Br + 2C + 3H + 1N + 1O = 2(8) + 2(8) + 3(2) + 1(8) + 1(8)

   = 16 + 16 + 6 + 8 + 8 = 54 bonded electrons

#Covalent Bonds = #Valence e⁻ - #Bonded e⁻ / 2 = (54 - 36) / 2 = 9 cov. bonds.
