The correct option is B covalent
$N_{2} O_{5}$ contains nitrogen and oxygen atoms which, if you look at the periodic table are both non-metals. When 2 non-metal bond they form covalent bond . So regardless of whether N-N, N-O or N=O is being formed, the bond is covalent.
Hence, option B is correct.
