    C)  Pb                                         

    D)  Mg

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    AI, Fe, Mg all reduce dilute \[HN{{O}_{3}}\] into\[N{{H}_{4}}N{{O}_{3}}\] while Pb gives \[N{{O}_{2}}\] with dilute nitric acid. \[3Pb+\underset{dilute}{\mathop{8NH{{O}_{3}}\to }}\,3Pb\,{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}+2NO+4{{H}_{2}}O\]
