Verified Answer :

The corresponding compound that is classified as a base, would be C. NaOH. The rest are all acids as they contain a hydrogen atom that can dissociate into an aqueous solution, water specifically.

Answer: The correct option is (C).

Explanation:

Bases are the compounds which give hydroxide ions in their aqueous solution.

\(BOH\rightarrowB^++OH^-\)

NaOH is a base and gives hydroxide ions(\(OH^-\)) in its aqueous solution.

\(NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-\)

Whereas other enlisted option are acids and acids in their aqueous solution give hydronium ions that is \(H^+\).

So, the correct option is (C).
