Solution

The correct option is A Sulphuric acid
A mineral acid (or inorganic acid) is an acid derived from one or more inorganic compounds. All mineral acids form hydrogen ions and the conjugate base ions when dissolved in water. Commonly used mineral acids are sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and nitric acid. Acetic acid and tartaric acid are organic acids.

So, the correct option is A
