Haha, looks like we're trying to find the right element to mess up the scale. I'll go with A. HS - sulfur always causes trouble!

But what about H? I think it could also be a potential destabilizer.

Hmm, I'm gonna go with B. O. Oxygen is known to cause issues with protective scales, right?

C. H seems like the right choice here. Hydrogen can definitely destabilize the scale.

I disagree, I believe it's O that can turn the scale into a nonprotective one.
