2. Ozone is the molecule of an element.​

• A. Only statement 1 is true​
• B. Both statements are true​
• C. Only statement 2 is true​
• D. Both statements are false​

Answer 1

The correct option is C Only statement 2 is true​

The first statement states that “ Molecules of an element are formed by different kinds of the atom.” The statement is false as elements consist of only one kind of atom, which cannot be broken down into a simpler type of matter by either physical or chemical means.
And the second statement states that “ Ozone is a molecule of an element.” which is true. As we know Ozone is a molecule consisting of 3 oxygen atoms.
