Expert Solution
Step 1

The hybridization of CO is sp

And note only the sigma bond are formed by combination of hybrid orbital , the pure p or d orbital are involved to form pi bond.

The cabon and oxygen both have no d orbital , they have  '2p' orbital, so this '2p' orbitals are involved in pi bonding.
