विकल्प
ethanoic acid
formic acid
citric acid
carbonic acid

उत्तर
Carbonic acid
Explanation:
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is classified as an inorganic or mineral acid because it is formed by dissolving carbon dioxide gas in water rather than being extracted from living organisms. It lacks a direct carbon-hydrogen bond and a functional carboxylic acid group, both of which are standard characteristics of organic molecules. In contrast, ethanoic, formic, and citric acids are naturally occurring compounds found in plants and animals, making them true organic acids.
