To obtain a buffer which should be suitable for maintaining a $pH$ of about $4 - 5$,we need to have in solution,a mixture of

  • A
    $A$ strong base $+$ its salt with a weak acid
  • B
    $A$ weak base $+$ its salt with a strong acid
  • C
    $A$ strong acid $+$ its salt with a weak base
  • D
    $A$ weak acid $+$ its salt with a strong base
