ANYONE PLEASE HELP

Oxygen molecules are made of 2 oxygen atoms that are bound together. Ozone molecules, which are very different from oxygen molecules, are made of 3 oxygen atoms that are bound together.

Which of the following best explains why the two molecules have different properties?

A.) Oxygen molecules have an ionic bond, and ozone molecules have a covalent bond.

B.) The two molecules actually have very similar properties because they are both made of oxygen atoms.

C.) Atoms that are arranged differently create different substances with different properties

It can't be A, 'cause both have Covalent bonds, plus it can't be B, 'cause their properties are not same/

Hope this helps!
