STATEMENT I : A solution containing mixture of acetic acid and sodium acetate resist

\mathrm{pH}

change on addition of small amount of acid or base.

STATEMENT II : A solution containing a mixture of acetic acid sodium acetate acts as buffer solution around pH.4.74

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Statement I, II are correct

Option A (Statement I, II are correct) is correct because a mixture of a weak acid (acetic acid) and its conjugate base (sodium acetate) forms a buffer solution that resists pH changes, and its buffering range is around its pKa value, which is approximately 4.74.
