According to the Brønsted-Lowry theory, which of the following is a conjugate acid-base pair?

 

A

HCl and NaOH

 

B

H2O and OH-

 

C

H3O+ and OH-

 

D

HCl and Cl-

correct option: c

In the Brønsted-Lowry theory, a conjugate acid-base pair consists of an acid and a base that are related by the transfer of a proton. In this case, H3O+ (hydronium ion) acts as the conjugate acid, donating a proton, while OH- (hydroxide ion) acts as the conjugate base, accepting the proton.
