A bond is 2 e's... typically one from each atom, but it can also be both from one atom, non from the other (dative bonds or Lewis acid-base)

who says it has to be organic? that one with 8 could be Xe (none of this BS about noble gases not forming any molecules, please. There are LOTS of compounds with Xe)
The ones with 5 could be P's (for example)
G1, G2, G4, G5 could be P
G3 Xe
G6, G7 C (or Si)
I don't know how realistic this is, though.
