A basic buffer contains equal concentration of base and its salt. The dissociation constant of base is `10^(-6)`. Then the `pH` of the buffer solution is

A

`9`

B

`8`

C

`5`

D

`6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`P^(H) = 14 - P^(Kb) - "log" (["Salt"])/(["Base"])`
