Solution

The correct option is B 0.020 molar HNO3
From the given options an acid will have highest concentration of H3O+ ions.
Hence, 0.02 M HNO3 will give highest concentration of H3O+ ions since it is an acid.
The other options contain base (KOH,Mg(OH)2) and an organic species (C6H12O6), which will have low H3O+ ion concentration.
