The correct option is B
False

The reaction of sulphuric acid with zinc oxide results in the formation of salt and water. This happens due to the basic nature of zinc oxide(metallic oxides are basic in nature). When acids react with bases the product is salt and water.

$Z n O + H_{2} S O_{4} \to Z n S O_{4} + H_{2} O$
