C) plenty of running water This is correct because washing with sulfuric acid wouldn't actually get any of the acid off of you, same with oil, just soothe it momentarily and stop burning of the skin by creating a barrier to the acid. If you wash with soap it will burn even more by activating some enzymes in the acid (depending on kind of acid) so washing with water is most practical because it gets all of the acid off immediately to stop more burns from occurring. I would recommend washing with water and then pouring oil onto the burn, to create a barrier.
