Question 11 Mark
Assertion(A): Buffer mixture is the one whose pH remains constant even by addition of strong acid or strong base.
Reason (R): To resist changes in its pH on the addition of an acid or base, the buffer solution should contain both acidic as well as basic components so as to neutralise the effect of added acid or base.

Question 51 Mark
Assertion(A): The addition of sodium acetate to acetic acid solution leads to the suppression in the dissociation of acetic acid.
Reason (R): This is due to common ion effect. i.e., $CH _3 COOH$ and $CH _3 COONa ^{-}$both contains $CH _3 COO ^{-}$ion as common.
(a) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
(b) BothA and R are wrong
