Solution

The correct option is A $[C l O_{4}]^{-}$
The Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid is a proton donator and a base is a proton acceptor.

According to Bronsted concept, conjugate base of strongest acid is weakest.
order of acidity $H C l O_{4} > H C l O_{3} > H C l O_{2} > H C l O$
so weakest base is $C l O_{4}^{-}$ .
