When ethyl acetate was was hydrolysedin presemce of 0.1 M HCl, the rate constant was found to be `5.4xx10^(-5)s^(-1)`. But in presence of 0.1 M `H_(2)SO_(4)` the rate constant was found to be `6.25xx10^(-5)s^(-1)`. Thus it may be concluded that:
a) `H_(2)SO_(4)` furnishes more `H^(+)` than HCl
b) `H_(2)SO_(4)` furnishes less `H^(+)` than HCl
c) both have the same strength
d) will depend on concentration of ethyl acetate

Options
