The compound that forms an 'ic' oxyacid during hydrolysis is sulfuryl chloride, SO₂Cl₂.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis reactions for each option:

A. PCl₃ + 3H₂O $\to$ H₃PO₃ (phosphorous acid, an 'ous' acid) + 3HCl

B. NCl₃ + 3H₂O $\to$ NH₃ + 3HOCl (hypochlorous acid, an 'ous' acid)

C. SO₂Cl₂ + 2H₂O $\to$ H₂SO₄ (sulfuric acid, an 'ic' acid) + 2HCl

D. NF₃ is stable and does not readily hydrolyze.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is an 'ic' oxyacid.
