D Correct answer
Explanation

TNT (trinitrotoluene) is a yellow, odorless solid in its pure form. The 'trinitrotoluene' in the question appears to be a typo. TNT is an explosive compound that does not occur naturally and must be synthesized. Its characteristic pale yellow color is a well-known physical property.
