The correct option is B Tetrafluoroethene
Teflon is used in the making of non- stick coating of cookware. These polymers are formed when small ethene monomers combine together at high temperature and pressure in presence of catalysts. The reaction takes place as follows:

nCF2=CF2TetrafluoroetheneHigh Temperature−−−−−−−−−−−−−High Pressure, Catalyst[CF2CF2]nTeflon
