Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Buffer solution:- Any solution which resists its pH change on adding small amount of acid, small amount of base and water, is a buffer solution.
  • Primarily, two types of buffer solutions are observed-(i) Mixed buffer

                                                                                              (ii) Simple buffer

  • mixed buffer is further categorised into (a) Acidic buffer [which is formed between a weak acid and its conjugate base(came from salt with strong base)] and (b) Basic buffer [which is formed between a weak base and its conjugate acid (came from salt with strong acid)]
  • simple buffer is formed between a weak acid and a weak base.
