Problem

A laboratory technician prepares four aqueous mixtures at 25 °C, each by combining the stated volumes of 0.10 M acetic acid, HC₂H₃O₂, and 0.10 M NaOH. In which mixture will the resulting solution best resist changes in pH when a small amount of strong acid or base is added? (a) I onlyI \text{ only} (b) IV onlyIV \text{ only} (c) II onlyII \text{ only} (d) I and III \text{ and } II
