The pair of electron in valence shell which is not involved in bonding is called lone pair electron.

princenagar093: Bond made by sharing of electron..
842abhinavkumar: A double bond occurs when two atoms share two sets of electrons. Electrons are always shared in pairs. Each shared pair of electrons is called a covalent bond
princenagar093: So lets assume that there are six electrons in valence shell its making covalent bong by sharing four electrons then the 2 electrons which are not shared are lone pair electrons.
