C. 32 characters long. The MD5 algorithm produces a fixed-length checksum (also known as a hash) that is 128 bits, which is typically represented as a 32-character hexadecimal string. MD5 is widely used for verifying data integrity, although it is no longer considered secure for cryptographic purposes due to its vulnerability to various attacks.

It's C. 32 The ComputeHash methods of the MD5 class return the hash as an array of 16 bytes. Note that some MD5 implementations produce a 32-character, hexadecimal-formatted hash. To interoperate with such implementations, format the return value of the ComputeHash methods as a hexadecimal value.
