A is correct✅

Magnesium can displace hydrogen from a very dilute solution of HNO₃ (about1%)

Option A and E are both correct...
Since All acids react with carbonates(marble calciumtrioxocarbonate) to liberate CO2 not CO....and all acids except HNO3 react with metals( Mg.. etcetera) to liberate hydrogen because it oxidizes the hydrogen to water due to its strong oxidizing ability.
