Answer:

4) I2 (s)

Step-by-step explanation:

Only solids can create regular geometric patterns (crystal structures). NaCl doesn't count in this case because it's dissolved and are in the form of ions.

I₂ (s) is a solid so it can have a regular geometric pattern in it, the molecules will be closely spaced with no translation motion. It will have a fix volume and fix shape.
