Yes, your answer is correct! The document that makes the most explicit reference to "unalienable rights" is the Declaration of Independence, specifically in the famous phrase: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
To arrive at this answer, let's discuss the other options briefly:
A. The Code of Hammurabi is one of the oldest known legal codes, dating back to ancient Mesopotamia around 1754 BC. While it does provide a set of laws, it does not directly mention "unalienable rights."
B. The Petition of Right is an English constitutional document from 1628. It served as a landmark in the constitutional history of England, but it also does not explicitly mention "unalienable rights."
C. Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan is a philosophical work published in 1651 that discusses social contract theory. While it addresses the rights of individuals in a political society, it does not explicitly use the term "unalienable rights."
Therefore, out of the given options, the Declaration of Independence is the document that most clearly and explicitly refers to "unalienable rights."
