By my count there are #19# #C-C#, and #C-H# bonds.

Explanation:

Draw out the molecule, #H_3C-CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3#, and count the #C-H#, and #C-C# bonds. There are #5# #C-C# bonds, and #14# #C-H# bonds. Of course, there are different isomeric structures available, but for an alkane, there are no degrees of unsaturation.
