The choice that uses the vocabulary word incorrectly is...

B. We need to negotiate the paint onto the wall

The vocab word "negotiate" means to discuss (generally this occurs when there is conflict). Another good word that means the same thing is "compromise"

In option b "negotiate" is used as if it means "apply" or "put" which is not one of the definitions of negotiate.

Hope this helped!
