Final answer:

Washington's response to Spanish leaders concerned about Jay's Treaty was critical.

Step-by-step explanation:

Washington's response to Spanish leaders concerned about Jay's Treaty was c) Critical.

When the public learned of the contents of the treaty, hostility to settlement mounted because so many Americans distrusted the British and favored the French in their ongoing conflict. In spite of the public opposition, Washington sent the treaty to the Senate for ratification.
