Answer:
As Daniel Berger stated, there is no involvement of d orbitals in hypervalent compounds such as SF6. Instead, the bonding is described by resonance between several ionized canonical structures.

The no of covalent bonds present in SF6 molecule is Six (6).
- Sulfur hexa fluoride (SF6) is a completely covalent compound.
- There is no ionic bond present in it as there is no transfer of electrons.
- It contains 6 sulfur - fluorine (S - F) bonds that are arranged in an octahedral manner.
- All these bonds are covalent bonds.
- Hence, it contains only 6 covalent bonds.
