How does a buffer resist change in ph upon addition of a strong acid? the strong acid reacts with the strong base in the buffer to form a salt, which produces few h+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in ph. the strong acid reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few h+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in ph. the strong acid reacts with the weak acid in the buffer to form a weak base, which produces few h+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in ph.

The strong acid reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.

Explanation:

When a strong acid is added to the buffer, the acid dissociates and furnish hydrogen ions which combine with the conjugate of the weak acid, forming weak acid. The weak acid dissociates to only some extent and can furnish only some protons and there is no significant change in the pH.

Hence, option B is correct.
