Answer:

B. only hydrogen atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound can contain atoms of several elements.

for example the
H_2O contains two hydrogen atoms and one atom of oxygen.

An element can only have atoms of itself for example
O_2 has two atoms of the same element

The hydrogen element can only be formed by hydrogen atoms.
