To obtain a buffer which should be suitable for maintaining a $pH$ of about $4 - 5$,we need to have in solution,a mixture of

  • A
    $A$ strong base $+$ its salt with a weak acid
  • B
    $A$ weak base $+$ its salt with a strong acid
  • C
    $A$ strong acid $+$ its salt with a weak base
  • D
    $A$ weak acid $+$ its salt with a strong base

What will be the change in $pH$ by adding $0.1 \ M \ NH_4Cl$ to $0.1 \ M \ NH_4OH$ (weak base) solution? (Given: $K_b$ of $NH_4OH = 1.77 \times 10^{-5}$)

$A$ buffer solution contains $0.1 \ mol$ of sodium acetate in $1000 \ cm^{3}$ of $0.1 \ M$ acetic acid. To the above buffer solution,$0.1 \ mol$ of sodium acetate is further added and dissolved. The $pH$ of the resulting buffer is equal to
