Dilution of a buffer solution with a small amount of water will **not bring major change in** the pH of the solution.
Buffers resist changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added, and while dilution will slightly reduce the buffer capacity, the overall pH remains relatively stable for a small amount of dilution.
