there are no limitations for keyword. you can take it according to your website size. but keyword must accurate and related to your website.

Around 5-10 keywords per page seems appropriate. What type of page is your homepage? Does it have its own content or is it like a magazine theme with links to other posts?

It's harder to optimize for homepage since URL probably will not have your keyword in it. Unless your domain has the keyword I suppose.
I've found it easier in the past to create a separate page to target keywords rather than try to optimize one page for multiple keywords.

You can use as many as you want, but decide them as per your content size, do not stuff them.
Rather than first approaching this from "what are my keywords and how many can I rank for?", I recommend you first figure out content and sections that should appear on your homepage: Communicate what your site is about and help your visitors to navigate your content/products/whatever it is. Once you have the different sections, content and keywords will fall in place.
However, as KingZen said, it is easier to optimize on pages that are topic- and keyword-dedicated rather than on your homepage. You also do not want to "confuse" google etc. whether a dedicated page or your homepage is the best result for a user's query.
