Solution

The correct option is B $C H_{3} O O^{-}$
Bronsted acid is those species which can donate a proton to other species.
$C H_{3} N H_{4}^{+}, H_{2} O,$ and $H S O_{4}^{-}$ are Bronsted acid as they can donate $H^{+}$ ion.
Here $C H_{3} C O O^{-}$ is a Bronsted base as it can accept $H^{+}$ ion.
