The answer is the third one (syphilis): Penicillin G is the most effective treatment for syphilis.

Explanation for each option:

  • Gonorrhea: While penicillin was once used to treat gonorrhea, it is no longer the first-line treatment due to widespread resistance. Current treatments typically involve ceftriaxone and azithromycin.
  • Chlamydia: Penicillin G is not used to treat chlamydia. The recommended treatments for chlamydia are usually azithromycin or doxycycline.
  • Syphilis: Penicillin G remains the most effective treatment for syphilis, and it is the preferred antibiotic. Other antibiotics are considered only if the patient has an allergy to penicillin.

Summary: Penicillin G is the most effective treatment for syphilis.
