Answer:

Here, the buffer is NH₄Cl + NH₃

The strong base is added to the buffer solution, then the salt reacts with the base to form a weak base and water, which does not alter the pH

NH₄Cl + CsOH → NH₃ + CsCl + H₂O

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ → NH₃ + H₂O

When we add strong acid to the buffer solution, the base NH₃ reacts with acid and forms salt, which does not alter the pH

NH₃ + H⁺ → NH₄⁺

Step-by-step explanation:
