Correct Answer: Carbon tetrachloride


Solution : The correct answer is Carbon tetrachloride.

Atoms join together in a covalent bond by exchanging electrons. Nonmetals typically form covalent bonds with one another. Four chlorine atoms symmetrically arranged as corners in a tetrahedral configuration and joined to a central carbon atom by a single covalent bond make up the carbon tetrachloride molecule.
