I believe the answer is option B. The bonded pair of valence electrons are shown using circles
Hello! Your answer is C, one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine.
In this case, there is some ambiguity with "Cl". It could be C + I, or Cl. (One being carbon + iodine and the other Chlorine). However, we can see that the only choice that mentions iodine states two atoms, which is incorrect, as if it was iodine, the 3 indicates that there would be three atoms.
Therefore, Cl must be chlorine. If you look at choice C, there are three atoms of chlorine, as indicated by the 3 at the end of the Cl. There is also one molecule of Fe, as there is no number at the end of it so there has to be only one.
B is not correct, as carbon would be only "C". A is not correct as a molecule is a collection of atoms bonded together, therefore, this compound could be named a molecule, but there are not multiple molecules inside this compound.
Hope this helps!

Add the atomic mass of each element present. (If there is more than one atom of an element, multiply the element's atomic mass by the number of that element's atoms.)
One atom is a metal and one is a nonmetal.
One atom has high electronegativity value, while the other value is really low
