Question
**Question:** Which of the following is the conjugate base of the following acid? (Note: electron pairs are not shown) **Chemical Structures:** - Acid: \( \text{SH}_3^+ \) **Options:** - I. \( \text{SH}_2 \) - II. \( \text{SH}_3 \) - III. \( \text{SH}_2^- \) - IV. \( \text{OH}^- \) **Select one:** - A. II - B. I - C. IV - D. III **Explanation:** To determine the conjugate base of an acid, one hydrogen ion (H⁺) should be removed. Considering the acid \( \text{SH}_3^+ \), removal of \( \text{H}^+ \) results in the neutral \( \text{SH}_2 \) (Option III).
