While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
- Refrigerants are chemical compounds used in cooling technologies, such as air conditioners.
- Air conditioners can use refrigerants to absorb heat and release cold air.
- The refrigerant dichloromethane is a hydrochlorocarbon (HCC).
- HCCs are composed of the elements hydrogen, chlorine, and carbon.
- The refrigerant tetradecafluorohexane is a perfluorocarbon (PFC).
- PFCs are composed of fluorine and carbon.
The student wants to contrast dichloromethane and tetradecafluorohexane. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
Dichloromethane, a hydrochlorocarbon, is composed of hydrogen, chlorine, and carbon; tetradecafluorohexane, a perfluorocarbon, is composed of fluorine and carbon.
A
Dichloromethane and tetradecafluorohexane are chemical compounds used in cooling technologies; the compounds are known as refrigerants.
B
The hydrochlorocarbon dichloromethane and the perfluorocarbon tetradecafluorohexane are both refrigerants that can be used in cooling technologies like air conditioners.
C
Tetradecafluorohexane, a refrigerant, can be used in cooling technologies to absorb heat and release cold air.
D
