Expert Solution

Step 1-Introduction
An acidic substance furnishes hydrogen ions in an aqueous solution and changed to its conjugate base. The magnitude of the hydrogen ion concentration is furnished by the formula .
The concentration of the hydroxide ions in an aqueous solution is increased by the presence of a base. The numerical value of the hydroxide ion concentration is furnished by the formula .
The buffer solution shows resistance to the sudden increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in an aqueous solution.
