B. Kryptonite. The reason for this is that it is a nonexistent compound, or if it exists it is manmade and only able to survive for a few second. The suffix -tie indicates that is a bonded with oxygen, which, since Krypton is a noble gas, is impossible. also, crystals are formed from ionic bonds, and since both krypton and oxygen are non-metals, a bond between them would be covalent.
