The correct option is B

king of chemicals


Sulphuric acid is known as the "King of chemicals" because it is a highly reactive acid that it can even dissolve other acids. Sulphuric acid is involved, in some way or the other, in the manufacture of practically everything. Certain chemicals, explosives, acids, dyes, glue, wood preservatives, automobile batteries, fertilizers and soaps are some of the compounds manufactured with the help of this acid.
