Solution

The correct option is B Ammonia, hydrogen ion
Coordinate covalent bond is a special type of covalent bond in which only one of the bonded atoms contributes the electron pair for sharing. In ammonium ion $(N H_{4}^{+})$ , donor and acceptor are $a m m o n i a$ and $h y d r o g e n$ ion, respectively.
Hence, the correct option is C.
