Which of the following is correct CSS syntax?
A) p { color: #000000; }
B) p { color=#000000; }
C) p : color #000000;
D) p { color;#000000; }

Accepted Answer

Option A is the correct syntax for adding color to text using CSS. The property "color" is followed by a colon and the color code is written after the colon. Option B is incorrect syntax as the equal sign cannot be used to separate the property and value. Option C is incorrect syntax as a colon cannot be used after the element selector. Option D is incorrect syntax as the semicolon should come after the color code, not before.

A) : colon
B) ; semi-colon
C) ! exclamation mark

The semi-colon (;) is used to terminate a style declaration in CSS.
