What will happen if some one drinks acid by mistake?
I think It depends on the type, concentration,and amount of acid. You can get anything from a sore stomach to a gastric ulcer.In the worst case, you could even die.
I guess what about you

You are right it depends on the concentration and what kind of acid, but if you are talking about acid like hydrochloric acid for sure it will result to liver damage or worse liver failure depending on the concentration!

I don't need to guess. I have a poison calender in my house. You can buy it at a pharmacy or find it on the internet as well.
You can find on it what to do in case of emergency. Drink water, or milk, no milk at all, vomit or not vomit.
Can be wise to have such a calender with you or better learn what to do in most common cases and also put cleaning stuf, car fluids etc at a very safe place, just like meds etc. So the risk of these kinds of accidents stays low.
And if you work with these kind of fluids pay attention to the security rules or clothes. They are not there without a reason.
