Solution
The correct option is DNH4OH+NH4Cl A solution that resists change in pH value upon addition of small amount of strong acid or base (less than 1 %) or when solution is diluted is called buffer solution.
Basic buffer solution : A basic buffer solution consists of a mixture of a weak base and its salt with strong acid. The best known example is a mixture of NH4OH and NH4Cl.
