In which of the following options is the substance INCORRECTLY paired with the acid present in that substance?

Options:

Vinegar - Acetic Acid

Orange - Citric Acid

Lemon - Lactic Acid

Correct Answer:

Lemon - Lactic Acid

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 4. Lemon - Lactic Acid.

Lemons contain citric acid, not lactic acid. Lactic acid is more commonly found in dairy products like yogurt or sour milk. Lemon juice primarily contains citric acid, which gives it its sour taste.
