Acidic buffer
Question

Statement I : 0.1M NaCN + 0.05M HCl solution on mixing in equal volume forms a buffer solution

Statement II : The solution after mixing contains a weak acid and its conjugate base and thus acts as buffer

Moderate
Solution

On mixing the following reaction occurs.

                                                                                    NaCN                       +                         HCl     →                               HCN       + NaCl

t=00.1 x v0.05 x V0
t=t0.1V - 0.05V = 0.05V0.1V - 0.05V = 00.05 v     

After reaction solution is mixture of weak acid and its salt with strong base, thus acts as buffer solution
