Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ 3}}[/tex]

Explanation:

First, identify the elements.

  • H: Hydrogen
  • Cl: Chlorine
  • O: Oxygen

Next, identify any subscripts or coefficients. This would indicate there are multiple atoms of each element or group of elements.

There are none, so each element has 1 atom.

There are 3 elements with 1 atom each, so 3*1= 3

This chemical formula has 3 atoms and B is correct.
