Any Arrhenius acid.

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid is defined as a substance that introduces H+ ions in solution. There are other definitions of an acid that are broader than this, but one that specifically introduces H+ in solution is called an Arrhenius acid.

Some examples are HCl, HNO3, H2SO4, and CH3COOH
