The species that is the conjugate acid is HC₂H₃O₂(aq). The correct option is d.

<h3>What are conjugate acid?</h3>

Conjugates acids are those acids which are made when an acid donates a proton to a base according to Bronsted Lowry theory.

In other words, we can say that it is an acid with hydrogen ion. An example is water (base) reacting with an acid to form the hydronium ion (conjugate acid).

Thus, the correct option is d, HC₂H₃O₂(aq).
