I truncated everyone's answer for you into one word.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so out of the answer choices which one do you think is correct??

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

It should be B. Because if there is no air then you can hear any sound. like that on the Sun there are huge blasts are in progress that is due to diffusion. but we can't hear any sound of those blasts coz there is a vaccum in the space. Does this help you?
