-2i

Explanation:

Given a complex number z = x ± yi then the #color(blue)"complex conjugate"# is

#color(red)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)(barz=x∓yi)color(white)(a/a)|)))#

Note that the real part is unchanged, while the #color(blue)"sign"# of the imaginary part is reversed.

Thus the complex conjugate of 2i or z = 0 + 2i is 0 - 2i = - 2i
