Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Propositions can be either true or false, and the terms valid and invalid refer to the logical structure of an argument or inference, not individual propositions. A sound argument is one that is both valid (the conclusion follows logically from the premises) and has true premises. An unsound argument is either invalid or has false premises.
