Correct option: B.
Aspartame
b The artificial sweetener containing chlorine that has the appearance and taste as that of sugar and is stable at cooking temperature is sucralose.Sucralose is derived from sugar through a multi-step patented manufacturing process that selectively substitutes three atoms of chlorine for three hydroxyl groups on the sugar molecule. This change produces a sweetener that has no calories, yet is 600 times sweeter than sucrose.Sucralose tastes like sugar. Its chemical formula is $C _{12} H _{19} Cl _3 O _8$.
