Assertion : The `pH` of a basic buffer mixture is given by: `pH=pK_(a)+log(([Base])/([conjugate acid]))`
Reason : The `pH` of an acidic buffer mixture is given by: `pH=pK_(a)+log(([conjugate acid])/([Acid]))`

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explantion of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

For basic buffer
`pH=pK_(a)+log=([Base])/([Conjugate acid])`
` :. pH=pK_(w)-pOH`
