Detailed Solution

The mixture of weak acid and strong base will act as an acidic buffer, if the number of equivalents of weak acid are greater than that of strong base
Number of equivalents = Normality × Volume in litre
Number of equivalents of acetic acid = 0.2 × 0.1 = 0.02
Number of equivalents of Sodium hydroxide = 0.1 × 0.1 = 0.01
