An electron transport chain couples a reaction between an electron donor(such as NADH) and an electron acceptor (such as O2) to the transfer of H+ ions across a membrane ,through a set of biochemical reactions.

These H+ ions are used to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is the end product of the ETC.

What is a waste product of the electron transport chain?

Protons fall down their concentration gradient through the ATP-synthase and are picked up by oxygen, along with electrons, to make water. So, ATP and water " comes out " the electron transport chain.

Which of these molecules is not a product of the electron transport system a nad plus or b oxygen or c fad or d water?

The answer would be B) oxygen. In the electron transport chain, oxygen is a reactant. It reacts with 4 electrons and 4 hydrogens to form 2 water molecules. NAD plus is a product of NADH losing an electron. FAD is a product of FADH2 losing an electron. And water is a product of the preceding reaction that I gave.
