Answer:


B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select the molecule that is diatomic

A diatomic molecule is one that has 2 atoms of the same element

It could be homonuclear (meaning it contains atoms of the same element) or heteronuclear (meaning it contains atoms of different elements)

While we can see 3 different diatomic molecules in the group of answer choices, we would go with the homonuclear diatomic molecule as the correct answer choice
