Solution
Ammonium chloride
Explanation:
When ammonium chloride NH4Cl is formed cation \[\ce{NH^+_4}\] (having 3 covalent and one coordinate bond) and anion Cl− are attracted towards each other, due to electrical charge existing between them and ionic bond is formed. Thus, ammonium chloride is a good example of compound having all three types of bonds i.e., covalent, coordinate and ionic bond.
