A non-metal A which is the largest constituent of air, when heated with $H _2$ in $1: 3$ ratio in the presence of catalyst (Fe) gives a gas B . On heating with $O _2$ it gives an oxide C . If this oxide is passed into water in the presence of air it gives an acid $D$ which acts as a strong oxidising agent.
