Which of the following will produce a buffer solution when mixed in equal volumes?

o HCl is a strong acid, whereas NH4OH is a weak base, their reaction :


HCl + NH4OH = NH4Cl + H2O


Hence all of 0.05 mol dm-3 of HCl will be neutralized by NH4OH and after completion of neutralization there will be some amount of NH4OH left (concentration 0.1 mol dm-3), so that the reaction mixture results in NH4OH + NH4Cl which will form a buffer solution.
