Detailed Solution

Since weak acid is in excess buffer solution is formed as follows

 HNO2+NaOHNaNO2 +H2O
 (weak acid)(strong base)       (salt)
mole0.40.2         0             0
t=t0.4 - 0.2 = 0.20.2 - 0.2 = 0      0.2             0

The resultant solution contains a weak acid & its salt forming an acidic buffer.
