The correct answer is:

C) ten to the negative second power L over one cL

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert liters (L) to another measurement, we want the ratio to have the number of liters in the numerator. This eliminates all choices except C and D.

For choice C, we are converting cL to L. There are 100 = 10² cL in 1 L; this means there are 1/100 = 1/(10²) = 10⁻² L in 1 cL. Since this is correct in our list of choices, this is the correct answer.
