Answer:

C. CaCO₃  

Explanation:

One formula unit contains the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Start by writing the symbol of the elements:

CaCO

We indicate the number of atoms of each element by writing the number as a subscript following the symbol.

One formula unit contains one atom of Ca, one of C, and three of O, so the formula becomes

Ca₁C₁O₃

Finally, we do not write one as a subscript in a formula. If there is no subscript, we automatically assume that it is one. Thus, the correct formula is

CaCO₃
