✓ Answer:
A
Add acid to water
The correct and safe way to make a solution of acid in water is to add acid to water, not the other way around. This is because adding water to concentrated acid can cause an exothermic reaction, which releases a large amount of heat very quickly. By adding acid to water, the heat generated is absorbed more gradually by the larger volume of water, making the process much safer.
