Your answer should be D. About 4 years. Hope this helps! =^-^=
<em>(The light reflected from the surface of the Moon takes only a second to reach Earth. The Sun is more than 8 light-minutes away. And so, if the light from the nearest star (Alpha Centauri) takes more than 4 years to reach us, we're seeing that star 4 years in the past.) Quora.com</em>
The correct answer would be B for sure

B. Chemical energy to start a chemical reaction
Answer:
The incorrect statement is: SO₂ gains electrons
Explanation:
A chemical reaction that involves the simultaneous transfer of electrons between two chemical species, is known as the redox reaction.
Given chemical reaction: 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2SO₃(g)
In this redox reaction, S is present in +4 oxidation state in SO₂ and +6 oxidation state SO₃. Whereas, O is present in 0 oxidation state in O₂ and -2 oxidation state in SO₃.
<u>Therefore, SO₂ loses electrons and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, O₂ gains electrons and thus gets reduced. </u>
<u>In this reaction, SO₂ is the reducing agent and O₂ is the oxidizing agent.</u>
