ANSWER

Butane is a hydrocarbon molecule containing four carbon atoms and only single bonds

EXPLANATION

Butane is a hydrocarbon that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms only. Butane belongs to the alkane formula with the general molecular formula CnH2n+2.

n is the number of carbon atoms

Recall, that alkanes has single bond between its carbon to carbon atom

In the alkane family, butane has 4 carbon atoms and only single bond

Therefore, butane is a hydrocarbon molecule containing four carbon atoms and only single bonds

Option B is the correct answer
