The equation, 2 C(s) + O 2 (g) $\to$ 2 CO(g), tells us

The equation tells us that the number of atoms of each kind in reactants and products is the same (A). Carbon monoxide (CO) is a product (B). Two atoms of carbon undergo reaction, which is indicated by the coefficient 2 in front of C(s) (C). Therefore, all of the choices are correct (D).
