Hint: Using general formula for Titanic Acid. $Ti{{O}_{2}}$ Is referred to as Titanic Acid ${{[Ti{{O}_{x}}{{(OH)}_{4-2x}}]}_{n}}$ . There are strong and weak acids. A strong acid is that which dissociates almost completely into its ions in aqueous solution whereas weak acid dissociates partially into its ions. Titanic acid has white salt like powdery appearance.

Complete answer:
 Titanic Acid is a general name for a family of chemical compounds of elements titanium, hydrogen and oxygen. There are various simple titanic acids.
Example-Metatitanic acid $({{H}_{2}}Ti{{O}_{3}})$
The pertitanic acid is given by-${{H}_{2}}Ti{{O}_{4}}$ .It is white in color with molar mass around 115.90g/mole.

So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Additional Information:
Acid is any substance that changes the color of blue litmus paper to red, reacts with bases to form salts. Usually acids can be divided into three major types-
Binary Acid
Oxyacid
Carboxylic Acid
Titanium (Ti): It is silvery metal of Group 4 (IVb) of the periodic table. It is lightweight, high-strength, low corrosion, structural metal and is used in alloy form for parts in high-speed aircraft. Its atomic number is 22 and atomic weight is 47.867. It has an oxidation state of +2, +3 and+4.

Note:
 Read about various states of titanic acids and the difference of oxidation in the respective type of titanic acid. One can also read about the synthesis of pertitanic acid. The name of pertitanic acid is given in relation to perchloric acid whose formula is $HCl{{O}_{4}}$ . Pertitanic acid is a type of titanic acid containing titanium, hydrogen and oxygen.
