  1. Mark the compound which possesses ionic, covalent and coordinate bonds.
    1. NH4Cl
    2. SO3
    3. SO2
    4. H2O
Correct Option: A

Ammonium chloride (NH4) is generally considered as an ionic compound but this compound has three different types of bond. There is ionic bond between NH4+ ion and Cl– ion. There are N-H covalent bonds. The formation of NH4+ from NH3is sometimes described as the formation of a coordinate bond between NH3and H+ , however once the bond is formed there is no difference between the four N-H bonds, NH4+ has a tetrahedral structure.
