CO would not follow octate rule. As carbon has 4 V.E. and after sharing it contains 7 not 8. Same thing is happening on oxygen atom as it has 6 v.e. and 3 it get from carbon with sharing and become 9.

  1. co because C has 4 valence electron but O has 6 
  2. there is unbalance of C atom uncomplete for octate The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects observation that atoms of main-group elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas. The rule is especially applicable to carbonnitrogenoxygen, and the halogens, but also to metals such as sodium or magnesium.
  3.
