      Hi evaa, well I dont think we could say there is one particular acid, however there are a class of particually dangerous acids. This class is inorganic acids and include substances like hydrochloric acid, and sulphuric acid. You have have come across these before. They are dangerous because they are strongly acid and corrode things. .. take alook at thier effect,.. i know the video is in german but it gets the point across, handle with care!
