Solution

The correct option is A $H^{+} a n d N O_{3}^{-}$
Nitric acid ( $H N O_{3}$ ) is a polar molecule and hence dissociates in water. It produces $H^{+} (a q) a n d N O_{3}^{-}$ ions when it is added to water. Since it produces $H^{+} (a q)$ or $H_{3} O^{+}$ ions on dissociation, it is considered to be acidic.
