Correct answer
C. CBr ₂ F ₂
Step-by-step solution
Freons are chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which are organic compounds containing carbon, chlorine, and fluorine. CCl ₃ F , CCl ₂ F ₂ , and CClF ₃ are all chlorofluorocarbons and are commonly known as Freons. CBr ₂ F ₂ contains bromine instead of chlorine. It is a bromofluorocarbon (classified as a Halon), not a Freon. Answer: CBr ₂ F ₂
