This can be done using Disjoint Set.
1. For each vertex v, call MakeSet(v)
2. For each edge vertices, u & v, UnionSet(u, v). Modify UnionSet to return parent, if parent is a new one, increment count
3. Count has number of connected components

//Simple DFS approach
int components(){
	int count = 0;
	for(Node n : Graph.vertices()){
		if(!visited(n)){
			count++;
			DFS(n);
		}
	}
	return count;
}

void DFS(Node node){
	visit(node);
	for(Node adj : node.getAdjacentNodes()){
		DFS(adj);
	}
}

//To implement visited we can use an array or Map\Dictionary
