A.sodium chloride (NaCl)

B.ammonia (NH3)

C.chlorine (Cl2)

D.aluminium bromide (AlBr3)

E.carbon monoxide (CO)

Verified Answer :

carbon monoxide (CO)   is made up of a coordinate covalent bond
coordinate covalent bond is formed when both electrons forming the bonding pair of electrons are provided by the same atom

The correct option is E

Coordinate covalent bond is a type of covalent bond. A coordinate covalent bond is formed when a pair of shared electron comes from a single element. The pair of shared electron are held together by the force of the nucleus of the atom. This type of covalent bond is observed in carbon monoxide.
