Carbon dioxide is formed when two oxygen atoms chemically combine with a carbon atom. Which term best describes carbon

dioxide?

the answer is C, the reason of this is because if you see the definition of a compound, you can see that it's when 2 or more elements combine, for example, carbon dioxide is read as CO2 so it needs 1 atom of carbon and 2 atoms of oxygen in order to balance their charges.
