Solution

Neoprene, a synthetic rubber, primarily consists of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). However, it also includes chlorine (Cl) as a significant element in its structure. In fact, neoprene is a polymer derived from the polymerization of chloroprene, which is chemically known as 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene. The presence of chlorine in its structure imparts improved chemical stability and resistance to degradation from heat, light, and ozone, making neoprene particularly useful in a variety of applications, including seals, gaskets, and wetsuits.

Given the options provided (ANBOCClDF), the correct answer is CCl (Chlorine).
