Detailed Solution

A) At 298 K, pH of an acidic buffer can be greater or lesser than or equal to 7.

B) Buffer capacity of acidic buffer is maximum when its pH = pka , [salt] = [acid]

C) Equimolar mixture of NH4OH and HCl cannot act like a basic buffer.

     Mixture of excess weak base and limited strong acid can act like a basic buffer.

D) A basic buffer containing NH4OH ( pkb = 4.8 ) has a pOH range of 3.8 -5.8.

      pOH range of basic buffer = pkb - 1 to pkb + 1
