Hi! It appears you have asked the same question twice. I will quote my answer to the same question you already posted:

"the only sentence which uses semicolon correctly is the first sentence, option A!

  • <em>A. Chris and Molly were delighted to see the whole family gathered in the living room; the group was waiting to congratulate the couple.</em>

We use semicolons in sentences between two <u>independent clauses</u> instead of a transitioning or linking word (conjunctions). "

Hope this helps!
