Answer:
Carboxyhemoglobin, or carboxyhaemoglobin, (symbol COHb or HbCO) is a stable complex of carbon monoxide and hemoglobin (Hb) that forms in red blood cells upon contact with carbon monoxide. Carboxyhemoglobin is often mistaken for the compound formed by the combination of carbon dioxide (carboxyl) and hemoglobin, which is actually carbaminohemoglobin. Carboxyhemoglobin terminology emerged when carbon monoxide was known by its ancient name carbonic oxide; the preferred IUPAC nomenclature is carbonylhemoglobin
