HEY FRIEND!
I'm an ICSE student.
Here's your answer:
Coordinate bond is the type of bonding formed between two atoms when the shared pair of electrons is entirely contributed by one of the atoms.
There is a difference between Coordinate bond and Covalent bond. In covalent bond, the pair of electrons is mutually shared by both the atoms, i.e., both the atoms participate in the bond formation.
Whereas in Coordinate bond formation, the shared pair of electrons is contributed entirely by one atom.
For example, in the formation of ammonium ion, the lone pair of nitrogen comes into effect. Nitrogen atom donates the pair of electrons (the lone pair of electrons) entirely to a proton (hydrogen ion), due to which a positive charge develops and ammonium ion is formed.
Other examples of coordinate bonds are Hydronium ion, Hydroxyl ion, etc.
THANKS!
