will 0.04 M CH3COOH and 0.2M NaOH form buffer solution?? as equivalents of the strong base are more in this case and buffer consists of weak acid and salt of weak acid and strong base??

as u hav not not mention volume
i'm taking 1 ltr
if u use buffer equation here
ph= pka + log [salt] / [acid -salt ]
it would not yield any result
becoz conc of acid is less than base
quantity under log is negative
n log is not define for negative values
so it is not buffer ...........
