Explanation:
The correct code block uses col("storeId").cast(StringType()) to cast the column to StringType. Option B correctly applies this method. Other options have syntax errors: missing quotes, incorrect use of cast, or misuse of as. Despite apparent quote typos in the options, B's approach is valid when quotes are properly closed.
