No, you cannot determine the properties of a chemical compound by solely knowing the properties of the elements that make up the compound, because in a chemical compound, the properties are completely different and or independent of the chemical and or physical properties of the individual elements used to make up the compound.
The answer would be letter B.

Explanation:
Compounds are those substances that are made up of elements that are combined in a fixed proportion or ratio. The individual property of element is lost once it forms a compound. The physical and chemical properties of both compound and an element is different.
Example of a compound is water and its elements are hydrogen and oxygen. Water is a colorless liquid that acts as a solvent and dissolves most of the solutes in it. While oxygen and hydrogen occurs as gases in their elemental state.
