Solution

A buffer solution is made up of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. H2CO3 is a weak acid. Its conjugate base is HCO3-. Therefore, NaHCO3, which is a salt of the weak acid (H2CO3) and a strong base (NaOH), can be mixed with H2CO3 to make a buffer solution. So, the answer is A. NaHCO3.
