Answer

This mixture results in a buffer solution.

Work Step by Step

1. Try to identify conjugate acid-base pairs. First solution: $NH_3$ Second solution: $N{H_4}^+$ and $Cl^-$ - The first solution has $NH_3$, and the second one has $N{H_4}^+$, so, since they are a conjugate pair, and they are in a simillar concentrations, the mixture will result in a buffer solution.
