Question 27 NECO • 2025 • CHEMISTRY • objective

An unknown monoprotic acid HA is titrated with 0.100\,M NaOH. A 40.0\,mL sample of the acid solution requires 25.0\,mL of NaOH to reach the equivalence point. A second experiment takes a 10.0\,mL aliquot of the same acid solution, adds 5.00\,mL of 0.050\,M NaOH, and then titrates the mixture to the endpoint with the same 0.100\,M NaOH. The volume of NaOH required in this second titration is 7.50\,mL. Given that the acid dissociation constant \(K_a = 1.0 \times 10^{-5}\), calculate (i) the original concentration of HA (in\,M) and (ii) the pH of the solution after the partial neutralisation (just before the second titration).
