The conjugate acid of any species, is that species plus a proton; so it's $H_{2} P O_{4}^{-}$ $H_2PO_4^(-)$ .

Explanation:

When we add a proton, we must conserve both mass and charge, we add $H^{+}$ $H^+$ to $H P O_{4}^{2 -}$ $HPO_4^(2-)$ so the conjugate acid is simply $H_{2} P O_{4}^{-}$ $H_2PO_4^(-)$ . What is the conjugate acid of $H_{2} P O_{4}^{-}$ $H_2PO_4^(-)$ ?
