Question
Answer the following in one sentence :
Write one property of a buffer solution.
Solution
Properties of buffer solution:
i. When a small amount of strong acid (or strong base) is added to a buffer solution, there is no significant change in the value of pH.
ii. The pH of a buffer solution is independent of the volume of the solution. Hence, the dilution of a buffer solution will not change its pH.
iii. The pH of a buffer solution does not change even if it is kept for a long time.
