    HCl is a strong base therefore completely dissociates to give out H⁺ ions.

    Therefore [HCl] = [H⁺]

    Number of HCl moles added - 0.075 M/1000 mL/L x 2.50 mL = 0.0001875 mol

    total volume of solution - 35.00 mL + 2.50 mL = 37.50 mL

    Concentration of HCl = number of HCl moles / volume

    [HCl] = 0.0001875 mol / 0.03750 L = 0.005 M

    pH of solution is;

    pH = - log[H⁺]

    since [HCl] = [H⁺]

    pH = - log (0.005)

    pH = 2.30

    Therefore pH of solution is 2.30
