Answer:

We wanted to visit the museum while it was featuring a traveling exhibit about the Titanic.

Explanation:

Adverb is the grammatical class of words that modifies a verb, adjective or other adverb. Never modify a noun. It is the invariable word that indicates the circumstances in which the verbal action occurs. Ā The adverbial clauses have the same function as an adverb.

On the basis of this we can conclude that the adverbial clause "while it was featuring a traveling exhibit about the Titanic." is modifying the infinitive verb "to visit". Moreover, this is the only phrase among those that were shown in the question, which has a verb in the infinitive form.
