When ethyl acetate was hydrolyzed in the presence of `0.1 M HCl`, the constant was found to be `5.40 xx 10^(-5) s^(-1)`. But when `0.1 M H_(2)SO_(4)` was used for hydrolyiss, the rate constant found to be `6.20 xx 10^(-5) s^(-1)`. form these we can say that
A. `H_(2)SO_(4)` is stronger than `HCl`
B. `H_(2)SO_(4)` is weaker than `HCl`
C. `H_(2)SO_(4)` and `HCl` both have the same strength
D. The data are not sufficient to compare the strength of `H_(2)SO_(4)` and `HCl`
