Solution

The correct option is C $H_{3} O^{+}, O H^{-}$
Two substance that differ from each other only by one proton are refered to as conjugate acid-base pair.
except option 'c' all pairs are differ from each other only by one proton and hence they are conjugate acid-base pair.
hence $H_{3} O^{+}, O H^{-}$ are not conjugate acid-base pair.
