Sentence Correction

Hello,

I am a bit confused the answer is E. I thought the answer would be either A) or B) .... because if there is 3 "and"s, I think "comma" is required instead of "and" before nitric acids, the second noun (based on the structure A, B and C)

Could anyone explain why???

Thanks!!
