I think the answer is C cuz while acids conduct electricity they don't liberate hydrogen at the anode, they do that at the cathode.Acids produce only H+ which is positive and the cathode(negative electrode) attracts only cations while the anode(positive electrode) attracts only anions(F-,O- and the like). I pray everyone will get admitted this year πŸ™

Please make sure you read a question carefully before answering in jamb i beg you πŸ™ look at the option C it says anode not cathode and hydrogen forms a cation not anion you get so please i beg you reading questions very well really prevents catastrophe God bless you 🀜

The false statement among the options is:

D. Acids have a sour taste.

While many acids, such as citric acid found in citrus fruits, do have a sour taste, not all acids taste sour. Some strong acids can be extremely corrosive and would be harmful or fatal if ingested, so tasting them is not advisable. Therefore, option D is false.
