Solution

The correct option is D $H P O_{4}^{2 -}$
$H_{2} P O_{4}^{-} a c i d + H_{2} O \to H_{3} O^{+} + H P O_{4}^{2 -} conjugated base$
$H_{2} P O_{4}^{-}$ gives $H P O_{4}^{2 -}$ (conjugated base) in aqueous solutions. It acts as proton donor.
Note: An acid and its conjugate base differ by one proton only. An acid loses one proton to form a conjugate base.
